Bergy, I'm sorry, but I have to give you a 5 on this one. *s* I cooked this last night on the grille for me and the couple next door and we loved it. I've never used the wine on salmon before but I'll be doing this one again soon. I had a 1.4 lb salmon but used the rest as directed and it was absolutely delicious. Thank you for this one! Chuck

This is a wonderful way to cook salmon. I had a 2 lb. salmon fillet (that is about as big as you can get down here in the south). The white wine and herbs highlighted the flavor of the salmon perfectly. Turned out very tender too. Thanks!!

Yum! Only change I made was to use a little less dried dill rather than fresh which I didn't have and loved this! Really easy to put together and a great blend of flavors, wrapping in the foil kept it nice and moist and the serving suggestion was great. I gave the carrots and pea pods a light blanch to keep them nice and crisp.
