Honey-Glazed Salmon Fillets
"I am always trying different ways to season and cook salmon, and this recipe is by far one of my favorite creations. It's neither too sweet nor too spicy--just right! I serve it over rice, drizzled with the sauce. Yummm!"

This was good. Wasnt too pleased with the amount of garlic though. I thought it was too much. Other than that it was good . Will make again but will cut back the amount of garlic. Made for Recipe Swap #34.. -
It was ok? Not particularly fond of the marinade/sauce...my fish did not take on the flavor of marinade as I had hoped for and I marinaded it for about 4 hours. Thanks for sharing! -
We enjoyed this tonight as our main meal. We enjoyed the slight hint of heat the cayenne gave the salmon without it being overpowering. I didn't have a problem with there not being enough of the sauce for marinating but I do think that if you were going to use the sauce to drizzle over rice or something you may want to make extra. I also took the advice of the previous reviewer and broiled it for the last couple minutes and that baked in the sauce well. Made for Aus/NZ tag. -
I enjoyed this sauce, the recipe didn't make enough so I suggest doubling for some extras... Also, recommend broiling for 3-4 minutes after cooking so make the glaze look more intense... Great recipe, will use often!
