Don’t add anything; don’t omit anything… This recipe cannot be improved upon! It is superb!
Best grilled salmon! My family loves it and it’s just as good left over!
Very tasty salmon. Will definitely make again.
This is probably my favorite recipe for King salmon… and the family always asks for more… Delicious!!
Made recipe as is presented. Baked at 400 F for 5 minutes per side – a couple of minutes loger for thicker filets- Perfect! Made it for many and receive great compliments every time! Love this!
Loved this!!! I didn’t change a thing!
This is the best salmon recipe we’ve used – bar none! We go to Alaska every year to fish for salmon, and this is my go to recipe. It’s simple, the marinade is excellent, and every one raves over it! We don’t always have but maybe 30-45 minutes to marinade, and it still is the best! Enjoy! Thank you HEATHER for this great recipe!
It was delicious. There were 2 husbands who said they didn’t like salmon that was marinated but they made an exception when they ate this. They really liked it
This salmon was great! I substituted oregano for the thyme. Also added a tablespoon of lemon juice. Mixed it all in a ziplock bag and marinaded it overnight. I used to think I didn’t like salmon, but I’ll be making this again.
I substituted half of the soy sauce (to salty for me) with 1/4 cup Sauvignon Blanc. Yummy! I’ll do it again.
Made this exactly as instructed and it was delicious!!! Everybody loved it and had seconds. This is a great grilling recipe!
It was great. We usually use a teriyaki marinade. This was similar, but the addition of thyme & basil gave it more savory depth. Used lemon juice not lemon pepper.
Very good recipe.
Sooooo delicious! My favorite salmon recipe ever! Will probably make once per week from now on. YUM!
Grilled the salmon; the color and taste were great! Served it with yellow quash from the garden, quinoa and naan bread. My husband liked it was the best he’d had in awhile; I will make this again!
One of my favorite salmon recipes from AR! I have grilled and have baked with great results.
I loved this recipe! And – so did my family. I added a little ground ginger (about a teaspoon). I reserved a little of the marinade to brush on while my hubby grilled it and it was a hit all around!
It was very easy to make and tasted great to me. Thanks Heather.
Turned out well. Added a little red pepper flakes to give it a little heat. Overall a good dish.
This was a really great marinade! I let it marinate for about a day in the refrigerator (would recommend, might change your life!) and I cooked it on a countertop George foreman at 425 degrees about 4-5 minutes on both sides! Love this !!!
Had some trouble with flareup on the grill – might have been too hot – but the family loved it.
