Lovely low-ingredient seafood meal! Serve with your choice of grain if needed. Also would be good with other veggies. This recipe is easy to double for larger families.

Fast, simple, a great meal on a busy night, yet elegant enough for company. I served mine with Jasmine rice. Read More

I am not a big fan of salmon. I would make it again but I would double sauce and add garlic. I made it exactly the way recipe described. Read More

My husband and I were pleasantly surprised by this recipe. It was very easy to prepare and the flavor was really good. As other reviews have said, the asparagus probably doesn't need to be pre-steamed. Ours was over cooked. Read More
