    I can't believe how excellent the fish taste. I caught the fish on a charter boat fishing the great lakes. I have used this recipe twice. Everybody who has tried it loves it.

    I had the farm raised salmon, skin removed.

    The skin side, if skin is missing, has a dark line across the back.

    Simple, easy way to show off your 'chef' skills!

    Wild caught king salmon is one of the tastiest salmons. This simple preparation enhances the flavor.
