For someone is usually intimidated by cooking fish. It was very easy and came out the first time trying this. Definitely a keeper!

Very nice flavour, but don't use too thick a piece of salmon. Also, watch the nuts carefully---only 1 minute or they'll burn.

Excellent easy, healthy recipe. Start with best salmon available. Fresh, of course, is ultimate, but frozen wild Pacific Northwest red-sockeye, silver-coho or king-chinook offer outstanding flavor, texture and are available throughout US. Avoid chum, farm-raised, etc. Good cuts or fresh salmon will give you full enjoyment of many fine meals such as this one!

This is really yummy. I'm always looking for good and quick recipes for salmon. This really fit the bill. I could stand a little less ginger or none at all, but it was good as is. Went well with the quinoa dish, too. A great gluten-free dinner!

I didn't start far enough ahead time-wise to marinate the salmon, so I mixed all the marinade ingredients together and rubbed the mixture on both sides of my salmon filets (I had skinless filets). I sauteed them in a non-stick skillet with maybe 1/2 tsp olive oil. Delicious!!

I made this salmon recipe and loved it! It is a great alternative to plain grilled salmon. It had a great mix of flavors to it.

I had to omit the walnuts because my daughter is allergic and I doubled the marinade because I had 2 extra salmon fillets. This was absolutely delicious! It's amazing how just a few ingredients can turn into a wonderful meal. I broiled the salmon for 7 minutes and it was perfectly cooked; moist and tender. I'm adding this recipe to my rotation.
