Nice and easy meal - turned out quite well. I added fresh mushrooms and a red pepper to the dish and served with steamed broccoli. Next time I might try this with soya sauce, as I found it a tad bit sweet with teriyaki sauce.

Super easy and delicious. I add some mixed veggies and extra teriyaki sauce. Husband and kids love it.

Absolutely loved this recipe! I used a bit more salmon and cooked 2 cups of white rice to go with it. Made some minor changes: 1) sautéed one cup of frozen mixed veggies with the remaining oil from cooking salmon. ; 2) added 1 tablespoon oyster sauce in addition to teriyaki sauce. Delicious! Thanks for sharing!

About four stars in taste, but five for the easiness of it all. Very simple and quick way to eat salmon.

I substituted the rice for couscous which worked excellent. I also added some feta cheese and a couple table spoons of sour creme to ad a bit of flavor and moist. Finally adding lemon pepper to the salmon for even more flavor. Very tasty and fresh!
