Simple and delicious! I usually put a layer of peeled baby carrots under the salmon, spray them with oil and season them with creole seasoning & garlic powder. Enjoy!

Used this recipe for Mahi Mahi and cooked the fish over cauliflower instead of carrots. What a flavor complement! Served with Charddonay, Yellow cherry tomato, fresh mozzerella, basil and pesto salad with balsamic and EVOO, and served with Candied sweet potato side dish. So happy I have left overs

    This was wonderful. I increased the amount of onion (I used red)and cream and I added some mustard to it. It tasted great with carrots underneath. Thanks a lot for this recipe!

    I wish they had half stars. This would be about 3.5. I felt it needed more flavor. Too much salmon flavor and not enough "other" flavor. I did put the carrots under it and sprinkled with cajun seasoning. Those were quite good. Maybe I should have used the cajun, as the other reviewer did, on the fillet too. I ended up baking it 50-55 minutes, but then the onions were burnt. I would maybe suggest oiling the onions or mixing them with the sour cream first.

    Simple and tasty. I used a cajun seasoning which added a hint of spice to the sauce. The sauce is delicious and helps to keep the salmon moist, but next time I will cook it for a shorter time as it seemed a little overcooked for our tastes. Thanks for a nice recipe Engrossed.
