This is delicious and SOooo easy to make....thank you, ChrisMc for a wonderful alternative to the "same ole' baked salmon" :0)

I made this last night and it was so good! I made one change since my DD is allergic to dairy. Instead of using butter, I used sesame oil and that really makes it yummy. I served it with Dan's Asian Rice (found on food.com) and on a bed of cooked spinach. Cooked the spinach in sesame oil also with garlic and soy sauce. My kids gobbled it up! Thanks for the recipe!

I don't know what happened. The salmon had no flavor at all. I marinated it for four hours and I basted it as it was baking. I even made made more of the sauce/marinade than called for. I had to end up using a bottled teriyaki marinade to give the salmon flavor. What do you think may have happened?

VERY GOOD! The marinade time is really what makes or breaks this. I made it once and only had time to marinade it for about an hour. None of the flavors came through. Made it again last night & marinaded it for 3 hours and tasted a HUGE difference. I love that it's made with ingredients I always have in my house. Thanks for sharing!
