My father-in-law had a friend who fished for salmon in Lake
Michigan. Every year, he gave my FIL
3 salmon; my FIL converted an old refrigerator into a smoker, smoked the salmon
for his buddy, and kept one for himself.
Those were the “good old days” when we raved about his smoked salmon,
and he shared with us!
Sadly, those days are long gone, but salmon remains my
favorite seafood…
This recipe for salmon, with it’s mouthwatering sauce, is adapted
from Cooking Light, and has all the right
flavors ~ sweet, salty, spicy and sour ~ all the right flavors that don’t
outshine the salmon!
It’s still on the cool side here so I turned the oven on again for
dinner last night, but this is a great recipe for the grill also.
The salmon is very tasty, really good ~ I didn’t have any
leftovers and doubt if you will have either, when you make it.

We love salmon too Pam. I didn't realize Splenda had a brown sugar version. I know we wouldn't have any left-overs either.

I love glazed salmon Pam! Look amazing!
ReplyDeleteSalmon is so healthy! All those Omega-3 whatchamacallits.:)
ReplyDeletePam, I like the glaze...sounds great! We need to start cooking fish at home instead of just eating them at restaurants. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

Looks delicious, Pam! We do not eat salmon very often, as it is quite pricey over here, but we love it! Especially when grilled or baked!
