This is a gluten - free dish and it is a very tasty and quick one!

Preaparation is easy and even if you are not a big fan of peanut butter, I can assure you that this combination of peanut butter and lime (juice and zest) is a wining one. 😍

The final outcome is quite delicate but you can increase the amount of peanut butter and of paprika according to your own taste.
