"Salmon steaks are marinated in a tangy lime juice mixture, broiled, and served with lettuce, tomatoes, green onions and lime wedges. This recipe is great on the grill, too!"

Thanks Kel! This is my family's favorite fish marinade. We use it for tilapia a lot as well as big sea scallops. We usually grill the fish after marinating. There isn't a thing I would change. The cumin and the cinnamon really make this awesome. I normally save the marinade and then boil it. I serve it with the fish. Goes great on basmati rice, particularly with all the chunks of roasted red pepper! I have serve this to guests and all have loved it.

Incredibly good! Made the recipe "as is" and grilled outside. I admit to marinading for half the suggested time; I am not a big fan of a marinade taking over the food. I served it without the tomatoes, onions and lettuce and found it could stand on its own!

This is, by far, my favorite salmon recipe from this site. I went very heavy on the spices, left out the red peppers and marinated the salmon in the rub over night. Instead of broiling this, I baked it for about 20 minutes. I served this with a Calabacitas recipe from another site. I can't wait to try this spice mixture with other fish. Thanks

This marinade is way good. I didn't use the peppers or the garlic. I used powder for both instead. I highly recommend making salmon tacos with this, topped with the mango salsa from this site. Way good!

Very good but I agree that the flavor was just a bit weak even though I ended up marinating it longer than it said to. Maybe it lost some flavor because I grilled it instead of broiling? I will definitely try this recipe again, though, and try adding white wine or more spices. It really is a very nice way to prepare salmon.

This was nice, but next time I'll put in more spices since the flavor was a bit weak.
