sounded good but it was way too salty and watery.

Thank you so much for posting this recipe! This is a fabulous combinations of flavours. So easy to make. I used balsamic vinegar because I didn't have rice vinegar. The asparagus is so tasty in this. I serve this over boiled brown rice.

This made an excellent low carb meal. The vegetables were cooked until crisp tender and then the salmon was added and cooked until done. The sauce was poured over all and cooked until thickened. I may have used more asparagus than the recipe specified. I would make this again. Made for *Give Me Five*

My boyfriend HATES salmon and I'm not a huge fan of it, but we're trying to eat healthier and we both LOVE this recipe!! I highly recommend it for someone looking for a new way to cook salmon. Very easy to make!
