  1. Very tasty recipe. And it is so easy to prepare, yet it tastes as though a lot more work went into it. I needed almost twice the amount of baking time than the specified 8-10 minutes though, which I credit my quirky oven for that minor issue. If you like salmon, you really must try this recipe. Make for ZWT7, Mischief Makers.
     
  2. This was a great meal for a busy weeknight. This was extremely easy to prep, did not take long to cook, and was nice and flavorful. We served with roasted asparagus and zucchini. Thanks!
     
  3. Really nice recipe, the salmon is perfectly prepared. One thing I would not add again, though, is the crushed red peppers. Perhaps some dill or tarragon would fit better.
     
  4. DH picked this recipe and then purred while eating it. In our household, there is no such thing as too much garlic or red pepper flakes not fitting in. I made the full amount of parsley mixture for our 2 wild Alaskan salmon fillets, so I could tell when it was done by the bubbling of the sauce. I served this with steamed asparagus and coconut rice with mango. Made for 2014 Culinary Quest for the Merry Maids of Mayhem.
     
  5. I didn't used to be a big fan of a salmon, but since I've been living on the West Coast and can find fresh salmon readily available (which to me makes a big difference in the taste) I've really started to become fond of it and have been trying to cook it more often as it is quite healthy. I'm always looking for good recipes, and this one is amazing! As other reviewers mentioned, this is quick and easy though certainly doesn't taste like that. I prepared everything as in the recipe, except I used just a tad less of the red pepper flakes as I didn't want it to end up too spicy and used regular chicken broth instead of low sodium as that is what I had on hand. I used Clos du Bois Chardonnay and as the fresh salmon fillets that I had were pretty thick I ended up cooking this for about 20 minutes in the oven. I served this with Parmesan orzo and asparagus and this was definitely a hit with my friends. I will be making this regularly - thanks for posting!

  2. I replaced the parsley with a few shakes of Italian Seasoning. Our family enjoyed it very much.

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called. Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com. Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net. Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
