Pretty good. I didn't have marmalade, and bf is not a huge fan of mustard, so I made him a honey dijon sauce with a creamy honey dijon salad dressing and honey. He loved the coconut salmon bit. I liked it well enough but I guess didn't like it as much as other salmon I've had. I'll have to try again when I have marmalade. thanks for the recipe!

The hubs and I enjoyed this. I didn't have orange marmalade, so I used my homemade peach jam instead. I did add a splash of OJ to the sauce to give it that less-sweet flavor. I also used spicy brown mustard as I had it on hand, and it balanced nicely with my jam. Like others mentioned, I used far less coconut than the recipe called for. I also made this spur of the moment, so only marinated the salmon in the OJ for about 30-40 minutes, and it was still quite tasty. ***revised*** This tasted even better when I reheated it the next day on 40% power in the microwave until warm. The orange flavor came through really well.

I kind of hacked this recipe, and it was still delish! I can't wait to try to make it again with some forethought. For anyone else making it on the fly, instead of marinading the salmon in OJ for 8 hours, I marinaded about 2 and then poured the oj into the dish to bake with them. (Of course this meant the entire fish didn't have the coconut coating, but I toasted coconut to serve with it to compensate) I also didn't have orange marmalade.. so I used apple and added a ton of orange zest. It did lack something, (which was probably due to not really following directions) but it was still really good. I might try to add ginger to the sauce, I think it might round the flavor out nicely.

I didn't love this and i really REALLY wanted to. I will try it again with a different type of marmalade and use shredded coconut next time. =(

Be warned: I only bought a 5 oz. bag of coconut, and it was waaaay more than enough. I coated the salmon until there was no more room for coconut! Unfortunately, after dredging egg-coated salmon through the coconut, I had to discard a very large amount. What a waste. I advise dumping a little at a time onto a plate and adding more if you need it. Don't throw away 3/4 a bag of coconut! Pretty good salmon, though. Even better sauce.

Everytime I have made this recipe everyone has loved it and wanted the recipe. It also sounds completely fancy and full of effort when it is in fact simple and effortless. I have made this many times and will continue to do so.

I don't know what happened, but I found that everything tasted extremely bitter. I even followed the recipe exactly. Maybe use orange jam instead of marmalade?

Wasn't that keen on this one. There was to much competition between the flavors of Salmon and Coconut. Possible a different Fish could be used? I will reuse the marmalade/dijon sauce again with the Salmon....

This did not go over well with my family at all. Followed the recipe to the letter, but most of the salmon sat on the plates, uneaten.

I did not like this with salmon. I will try it again with halibut or other wild, mild tasting fish. With the salmon I found the flavors orange and coconut competed with the natural (and delicious) flavor of the salmon.

Not for me. These are all ingredients I like, but it didn't taste good together. Can't figure out what went wrong... but now I've got tons of leftovers of expensive salmon that no one is touching.

I liked this; my fiance did not. He didn't like the flavor of the coconut with the salmon, but I don't like salmon much and so I loved that it disguised the flavor. The coating on the sides of my salmon did not cook well, so I think next time I will leave the egg out, since the coconut seemed to stick better anyway to the salmon without it.
