Excellent recipe. Will pin on my “Great Recipes” board! Thanks for sharing.
Bee, love your recipes! Am looking forward to trying this one tomorrow night and just have a question. Is there a particular reason you chose vegetable oil over olive oil. Does it have a lighter flavor, or is there another reason? Thanks for educating me and thanks a million for sharing your delicious recipes.
It’s neutral flavor.
Great recipe, actually all your recipes are great, I love them all.
Thank you Bee!
This was excellent. My husband loved it. Best recipe I’ve tried in a long time. I did season with mild slap yo mama instead of just sat and pepper. A real keeper my favorite salmon recipe
Does the chimichurri pairs well with other fishes/prawns and chicken?
