Yummy!
Jeremiah Ruiz
Really good! I baked as directed but the salmon was still not done at that point, so I opened up the foil and baked for an additional 7 minutes. The salmon was juicy and the lemon pepper was definitely the dominant flavor. Will keep this easy and quick recipe in mind as I make salmon often.

Easy recipe and tasty.
Terry Walsh
Very easy and delicious. Our family and guests loved it and ate up the whole dish! Next time I make it, I might serve it with a side dish of guacamole.

It was simple and tasty, just don’t agree with photo. The salmon is cooked in foil and doesn’t get browned or color, I did food styling for years. Would make again for sure.

Just as I was wondering how to cook my salmon, I get an email from AllRecipes that contained a link to this recipe, so I tried it. We really liked it, it was easy to make and virtually no cleanup. Now that is a recipe that I really like. Give it a try.
Vickie Harper
Followed recipe. Family loved it.

I really just needed a few ideas for my salmon, something I wouldn’t clam up entirely. This turned out well, even though I didn’t follow the ingredients per se. My substitute was to flop the fish around in some panko before baking; I wanted the steak to retain all the moisture internally and that was a great fix. I cooked it tented in foil, then about 5 minutes before serving I opened the foil and let it brown lightly. Because of the moist cooking style, it took almost 30 minutes but came out lightly golden, moist, and tender. Perfect for what I was looking to do. I’m trying to add fish to my diet but I find very few recipes I like and will use again. This one was a very good start that should adapt well to different flavors of seasoning and will compliment almost any side like a starch or vegetable. Happy with the result. The lemon squeeze brightened up the entire plate! The basic method is a keeper.

It was awesome! It took 40 minutes to bake, in my oven. I did not change the recipe except for serving size ( my salmon fillet was huge).
Sarah Gray
I used this recipe for ahi tuna steaks and talk about flavorful, yum
Lindsey Morgan
Very moist and flavorful. Excellent quick dinner made in the toaster oven. Will make many more times.
Elizabeth Chavez
It was good easy and really is a no Mess meal. Sauteed some vegetables and olive oil to go with it, paired good
Andrew Hayes
Very good…easy to prepare, though I didn’t have lemon pepper. Some of the All Recipe dishes call for somewhat obscure spices or ingredients. But, it still tasted just fine.
Daniel Bennett
I doubled the recipe because my salmon was a full pound. Served with bok choy cut up without the stems, sauteed in garlic and olive oil with a dash of kosher salt and stead baby red potatoes with parsley, butter, and garlic. It was outstanding!
Valerie Hinton
The flavor turned out way better than I was expecting! I used the exact ingredients called for and the flavors complimented each other nicely. I took mine out at 15 mins and it was perfectly done! If you like your salmon a little less than well done, start checking around 13-14 minutes. My salmon was about 1″ thick and center-cut.
