100% would make again

One evening when my husband and I went out to dinner, he ordered a salmon dish that sounded interesting. It was wonderful. When I tried duplicating it at home, he said mine was as good as, if not better than, the original. That made my day!

I think I overcooked the fish. I'll probably give this one another try, but the rest of my family was real thrilled with the it.
