Reviews
I used all lemon juice and dill instead of parsley. Delicious.
The salmon was easy to prepare, but the citrus flavor was overpowering and otherwise the dish tasted uninteresting. To be fair, I may have overcooked it and I generally prefer to saute or broil fish rather than baking it.
fresh, light. perfect with salmon. not over powering.
Solid
Quick and easy. Citrus tasty but not overwhelming.
Though I had double the fish this recipe called for, there was a TON of sauce leftover. I enjoyed it, as did my daughter, but my husband thought it was bland. Go figure.
I made this last evening! It was awesome. I also incorated brown sugar but I swapped out the parsley for fennel. The Fennell was a perfect addition. I served this over garlic lemon, turkey bacon Kale. Whoot! Delish! I used my Ninja which perfectly seals the juices. I will make this again and prolly cut back the OJ a bit and increase the brown sugar.
Used a side piece instead of filets and it took much longer to cook.
Deep, flavorful and delicious! Here’s what I’d do. I’d do it the way the recipe says bathed in the marinade/juices, but with 2 teaspoons of brown sugar suggested by moca72. Then when it’s done, spoon the marinade back over the salmon and moisturize it. Transfer the fish without the sauce onto a baking sheet and broil it 4 minutes for a nice, crisp exterior. Voile!
It was excellent for some very thick salmon fillets. I will rethink the sauce because it was too thin but was too tart when concentrated.
Not too bad; a little bland. I was thinking this would be very citrusy, but it surprisingly was mild. Next time I’m going to add some Yuzu sauce, and something sweet, like mirin or brown sugar. Def more paprika. As others suggested, this would probably make a better marinade, as the sauce is quite thin and kinda runs off the fish, rather than baking into it. Good place to start, though.
Used half the salt, twice the salmon, and lemon pepper instead of just ground. Poured the remainder of the juice and seasoning over the salmon in the pans. When serving poured the juices over the rice and served with stramed green beans. It was phenomenal.
Changed the parsley for basil, since I don’t like parsley. Served with some rice. Delicious.
amazing. simply amazing. I used salmon and put a bit more of everything in the marinade and replaced butter with olive oil. the only change is that I think it needs to be cooked about 20 minutes instead of 10 – 15
Excellent! No changes made. Will definitely make again!
Just meh for us. Needs garlic….maybe this mixture would be better as a marinade rather than a cooking sauce.
Very flaky and great taste. Definite repeat
I made this with double amount of fish and sorta doubled the sauce. We did not care for it at all. Like lemonade without the sugar. If someone wants to double sauce, perhaps less lemon, and more butter and oj. Sad. Even bought expensive fish from Whole Foods.
Easy to make but lacking flavor
wife doesn’t like salmon but she enjoyed this.
I added some brown sugar to tone down the tart taste. Melted the butter, brown sugar into the lemon/lime/orange juice mixture. Then poured over the salmon and baked on 350 for about 30 minutes. Tasted great and was a winner for dinner!
