Absolutely LOVED it! The I made a thinner fillet so I only baked it for 10 mins. and it came out perfect. I loved the flavors of the capers and lemon along with the butter. Made a great sauce for the fish. I made one piece of fish, so I cut the recipe in quarters the best way I could. I could have eaten another piece Thanks Sharon for another terrific recipe! Made for Zaar Stars Tag Game

    This is soooo good!! It was easy to make. I baked it at 400 because I didn't want it to bake too fast. The capers and lemon juice went really well with the salmon. I didn't let my salmon cook all the way through because it gets too dry. The salmon was nice and moist and full of flavor. I had it with my Garlic Butter Rice. It made for a great meal. I will definitely be making this again. Thanks for a great recipe Sharon.

    This was so tasty-rich,tender and buttery. The flavor is so very good and this was a snap to prepare. Beautiful to look at as well and perfect for company. For health reasons, I reduced the butter by half and this was no problem.

    Very, very good! I have fixed this in the oven as directed and have also cooked the salmon on my Hamilton Beach grill after coating the salmon first with the butter-lemon mixture, then adding the capers to the sauce to pour on the salmon. Great both ways.
