This is a delicious, healthy, & easy recipe. I served it on top of mixed salad greens with grilled asparagus. I used the full salsa recipe for 2 servings, so there was no need for additional salad dressing. I substituted capers for black olives in the salsa. I layered the ingredients on our plates; greens, asparagus, salmon, salsa. Sorry I didn't take a picture....it was so pretty!

The sauce is excellent. My husband put it over chicken and it tasted even better than the salmon.

I am always completely baffled when reviews on a recipe are all 5 stars and it didn't fit my taste at all. I found the lemon juice overpowered the salsa and it was very sour. I tried to doctor it to no avail and ended up throwing it out. Sorry but this did not work at all for me.

This recipe was recommended by Chef #482376. Buddha loves salmon and he and the contractor (we're having house renovations done) really WOWed over this dish. It has a great Mediterranean flair and it's super simple to make too. Thanks for posting. :)

This recipe made it into book#234156! PAC Spring 2008. Fabulous!!!! This was such an easy dish to prepare and the taste is superb. This would be lovely to serve to guests. I used one large filet (for 2 people) and kept the ingredient amount for the topping (since I love artichokes, black olives and tomatoes... never can have enough of a good thing!). I used an indoor grill pan, wiping it with olive oil before heating it up to medium heat. Great recipe here...try it!
