Great! Made it with asparagus and slices if jalapeño peppers and white rice.
Robert Andrews
Awesome
Amanda Taylor
My husband loved it! Since I am a vegetarian, I didn’t dare change anything and ruin it for him, except covering it tightly with foil.
Kimberly Brown
Quick/not involved, and always good.
Melinda Richardson
This was simply delicious! Usually my husband and I have salmon with only salt and pepper but this glaze really dressed it up without detracting from the flavor of the salmon. Very easy to prepare too!
Drew Wilson
Yes and Yumm. I used double the rosemary and it was great
Sarah Johnson
Follow the recipe as stated there was no need to make any changes the only thing I did different was a used steel head instead of salmon just what I had in the freezer

My fish guy wasn’t there to skin the salmon, so I left the skin on. Put the lemon and rosemary in the bottom of the pan, not on top. Ended up with a delicious, perfectly cook piece of fish that was fragrant without the overpowering flavor a double layer of lemon and rosemary would have given it. Will definitely make this again!
John Bennett
I love doing this in foil packs on ther BBQ to not heat up the house. Very delicious.
Samuel Hill
I put a little of my own spices and it was great…

I have made this recipe many times since I first saw this recipe. A must try it you like salmon.
James Aguirre
Delicious it really throws off the little bit of fishy flavor salmon has and makes it flavorful.
Thomas Porter
I sprinkled a bit of salt and pepper. It wasn’t enough. I added some more. Once in the plate, it was delicious but I lacked a flavor from back home. I poured some lemon juice on the cooked Salmon and it was very tasty. I tried the recipe with Dorado, another type of fish, it was good.
Wayne Martin
Yes, I used lime instead of lemon and I added chili flakes too some zest.
Thomas Carter
Delicious, I added a small amount of Garlic powder to the fish. It really added a good taste.
Wesley Henry
Easy and yummy. I wrapped in parchment paper for baking. So tender and amazing!
Elizabeth Peterson
Made this last night according to the recipe and it was SO DELICIOUS. Subtle flavors of rosemary and lemon made this dish my current favorite salmon recipe. Super delicious, yet so simple. Definitely a dish to serve to company, but easy enough for a quick weeknight meal.
Laura Ramos
Best salmon I’ve ever tasted!
Scott Burch
Terrific, tasty, super-easy recipe for salmon fillets! As mentioned in the comments, I used aluminum foil to make a tent for the fish in the oven, which I felt helped permeate the flavors throughout the salmon and kept it moist. I also loved snipping the sprigs of rosemary from my roof deck garden.
Derrick Roach
Really easy and with good flavor. We have made this a bunch of times for a quick healthy dinner.
