  • I used a herb rub that included all the ones listed instead of the fresh because that's what I had on hand and it was AMAZING! photo by Sks8477 Sks8477

    Wasn't crazy about the zest but was good after I removed that.

    Excellently seasoned. The salmon was a bit dry, but I accredit that to being in a high altitude.

    This was just wonderful. I added less citrus rinds per another reviewer and also baked it on a bed of Rock Salt. The salmon was juicy and flavorful. Some of the fresh herbs I did not have so used dried. It was still great but I imagine would be more impressive with fresh.

    Great taste! We loved it!

    Delicious. I did add a coating to the top of a little olive oil, butter and some Dijon mustard.

    Perfect amount of flavor, but still letting the fish shine. Adds freshness to the fish. It is extremely easy. Will make this often.

    Delicious. My parents raved about it when I cooked it for fathers day. Very flavorful and fresh.

    Mine was rather dry and the taste rather bland. Whenn I lemoned the heck out of it it wasn't so bad but.....

    The salmon cooked up beautifully (very moist and tender), but my husband and I thought the orange and lemon rind was extremely overpowering, and we both had to scrape it off in order to eat the salmon. I won't make this again, but I would recommend cutting WAY down on the orange and lemon rind to anyone who isn't crazy about those flavors.

    Excellent, quick and easy! My son loved it and it's healthy!

    This one is going to be a 'regular' at our house. It's quick and easy to prepare, yet delicious... there were definitely no leftovers!
