Made once according to recipe, than adjusted. Added sliced Fennel and toasted fennel seeds, roasted pine nuts, as they should be, Aleppo pepper and shortened cooking time for swordfish in first section. Great adjustments brought out flavors and added depth. Also axed greens to it, spinach my choice. Sorry I hate when folks change recipes but this one needed a boost.
