Really great and complimentary flavors. It was a bit cool here to grill outside so I panned fried the salmon along with the reserved marinade and that worked wonderfully. Only other change I made was to use 1/2 tsp of dried mint because I didn't have fresh. Was absolutely terrific served along with some minted new potatoes.
