Seafood Sauce (Margarita Sauce)Margarita sauce is the name used to describe a shellfish or seafood sauce white based in Chile. It’s really popular and a classic dish to order at the thousand of the little restaurants at the beach in front of the Pacific Ocean there. Usually, serve with white rice or mashed potatoes and salads.

I used a shellfish mix sold frozen at Costco for this recipe and it works like a charm, very tasty, tender and flavorful shellfish.

This is also a dish popular on Good Friday. Hope you enjoy it!
