Vickie's Country Salmon
- I've never been one for fish. But a friend of mine invited
me to a special dinner where her husband was going to grill salmon
steaks. He used traditional butter and lemon to saute the salmon.
One thing I don't like, is lemon. But during dinner I dropped
a piece of salmon in my salad, which was lightly draped in Ranch
dressing. Oh man, did it greatly improve the fish! The following
week I tried a new concoction on my husband and it has become
one of his favorite main dishes.
