This sauce has a ton of flavor, in fact maybe too much for piece of fresh salmon. Next time I would maybe save this for a defrosted salmon. Used fresh squeezed orange juice. See full recipe at http://www.dishoverdinner.com/2013/08/citrus-roasted-salmon.html

I'm not a huge fan of cooked salmon, but this was really good.

This wasn't bad, but I've had better salmon recipes off this site, but nice for a change and very easy. I wound up grilling my salmon. The sauce was good, but a bit too citrus-y (if that's possible).

This was wonderful! Even my dad, who doesn't like fish, raved about this recipe. We grilled the salmon instead of baking it. Will definitely make again.
