  • “Made this other night with salmon and a spare tilapia fillet I needed to use up.Preferred it on the salmon but thought it was a very tasty recipe and super easy to prepare.”

  • “What a great recipe!!I I made exactly as written and next time I might add the garlic like Bergy.The butter really adds a layer of flavor to this fish and should not be missed.I served with a baked potato, green beans and stewed tomatoes.Wonderful dinner!”

  • “Excellent recipe – I only made 2- 5 oz filets and cutthe mayo back to 1 tbsp each – added 2 cloves of smashed garlic Mmmm -The salmon was so moist and tasty.I can’t believe that this recipe has sat here since 1999 and never been reviewed until now!”
