I'm always on the look out for good salmon recipes. This is one of those. I love the tart rhubarb flavor combined with the salmon. I halved the rhubarb recipe and served it with two filets which I roasted at 550 F. I added the lemon while cooking, and served lemon slices on the side. It is truly a delicious recipe, thanks for posting!

I quite liked this recipe....it was definately different! I sprinkled the salmon with some lemon pepper and grilled the salmon to prefection. I felt that there was way too much sauce, so next time I will cut the rhubarb recipe in half. Instead of sugar, I used Splenda....the lemon was a nice addition! My SIL would have prefered it without, my husband and I enjoyed it, but with the sauce on the side as a condiment. If you enjoy fruit with your meat/fish, you would enjoy this recipe. Thanks Bev for a unique contribution.
