Well, it had a lot of flavor. For me, too many flavors overwhelming the beautiful piece of salmon I had. Mahi mahi or swordfish might stand up to it better. I think this is a good recipe for those who dislike salmon but want to include more of it in their diets for the omega-3s. The salsa was tasty, but for me the cooking damaged its texture, turning the tomato to bits of pulp and skin.

If I could give this 10 stars, I would. It was DELICIOUS! Hubby and I agree it's the best salmon EVER. It's really easy to prepare the marinade and salsa either in the morning before work, or the night before. Then you just have to throw it on the grill at dinner time. I served it w/ grilled asparagus and some long grain rice. FANTASTIC!

I live in the San Francisco area and love it here. I discovered Recipezaar (then Food.com..Genius Kitchen) in 2001 and have been so happy to have my favorite recipes stored safely here. I am mother to 7 and grandmother to 7.
I love to knit, smock, sew, etc., but my favorite hobby of the moment is traditional rug hooking. This is a sample of what I do.? It's called "November".? I dyed most of the wool myself. It is made from wool flannel, cut into strips a little less than 1/4" and then worked into a linen backing. This is my 3rd rug.
