This is a good no-fuss weekday meal..but I wont be making it again. I found the salmon to be on the bland side, it didnt pick up much if any of the dill flavor. Though I suppose that is to even out how overpowering the relish can taste. There are just many more tastier salmon recipes out there

Simply amazing! I cooked this in a pan instead of an oven, and the salmon came out so soft and juicy! I def. recommend trying this recipe without an oven. Just place the seasoned salmon in a stir fry pan on medium heat, add about 1 cup of chicken broth (I warmed up the chicken first and added a tablespoon of butter, and the springs of dill. Within 10 minutes, your salmon will be cooked! I didn't use radishes for the relish, but it still turned out amazing! The BEST salmon recipe I've tried so far...thank you, Rachel!
