Reviews
Erin on 2026-03-17 (5 stars): Wow! Loved it! And I have never left a review for any recipe. Added a tiny bit of minced garlic—this is a keeper especially for a low sodium diet
Jen on 2025-10-15 (5 stars): Delicious and so easy! I made this last night and my husband and I both loved it. It pairs nicely with Brussels sprouts and is a tasty healthy dinner with very little effort. I plan to also try the glaze on chicken!
Irene on 2023-07-31 (5 stars): The salmon was exquisite, it was soooo good. We cooked some buck wheat and baked carrots. After baking the carrots we put them und a pan with some teriyaki sauce. But I will definately try this also with brussel sprouts. Thanks for the great recipe! It will be a new regular in our kitchen!
Carol on 2023-06-17 (5 stars): Excellent! I cut everything in half for 2 of us. I wish I had made the whole amount of sauce to drizzle while it cooks plus save out a little at the end, for serving. Next time!
Loran Black on 2023-03-10 (5 stars): Wow! Made this tonight for dinner with some roasted Brussels sprouts with balsamic glaze and goat cheese crumbles and it was amazing. I also made a side of rice, and it was very very filling! Can’t wait to make again. My mom loved it.
Caroline on 2023-02-24 (5 stars): So simple and so delicious! This is going to be one of my new go-tos recipes for salmon. I served it with long grain rice and roasted cauliflower.
