For such a basic recipe I can't believe how good it was. We rarely get to eat salmon, but tonight my family ate every piece and have put it on the make more often list.
I made it exactly as recipe said and I was worried the cook time would be too short. But it was perfect.
Thanks Alton !!!!!!

Great recipe! The salmon always turns out perfect and AB's recommended side salad with balsamic vinaigrette is a great match. Add a loaf of fresh french bread and its complete, quick and delicious meal.
