My wife is a salmon lover and she said, along with the kids, this is far and away the best Salmon she has ever had. Personally, I don't care much for Salmon but I loved it too. Use fresh ingredients and squeeze your own juice and you will get outstanding results!

Steelhead was on sale so I subbed that which was still quite amazing. Kinda sad that I didn't use habeneros. Tried using jalepenos and just like all the other reviewers said, not quite spicy enough. All it really did was soak up the citrus tang. Next time I'll have to use a spicier pepper. But the fish was still really good.

I made this exactly like the recipe except I had to substitute jalapenos for the habaneros (one more reason to start growing my own). Even though it lacked some of the habanero kick, the salmon was extremely flavorful, especially with the butter. I have to admit I was a bit shy about grilling the salmon since I have never grilled fish before, but this was a very easy recipe to cook. I'll definately be making this one again... hopefully with habaneros.

This dish was easy and delicious. I only marinated the salmon for two hours and it wasn't too hot (I like hot!) so I will let it sit longer next time. The citrus and the heat were perfect together.

This was very good. I used jalapeno, instead of habanero, because I was afraid it would be too hot. Next time I would use the habanero, as the jalapeno was flavorful, but had no heat. I would also make sure to use a thicker salmon fillet next time. Mine were too thin and dried out a bit during cooking. The butter would be great on other things - I'm thinking cornbread!! Great recipe!

The flavors did not come out at all on my salmon. I marinated it in a ziploc bag for 2 hours. I followed the recipe exactly as listed and the only flavor came from the butter sauce, which I would have rather avoided to keep it a heart-healthy meal. I will try marinating it longer next time.

I have to agree with the majority here-This recipe is fantastic!!! The only change I made was type of fish (because the salmon in the store didn't look so great...) and went with tilapia. I served this with some steamed broccoli and cauliflower, which I topped with a dab of the habanero butter and OMG!!! SOOOO GOOD! Between the marinade and the butter, the flavors are so complex and inviting, your mouth will thank you! How something can be rich and also light tasting is beyond me-but this recipe does it! Also, as a side note, I LOVE spicy food, but for those of you who prefer things a little milder, have no fear-the way this fish is marinaded and with the habanero minced up nice and small it's really not very spicy at all, you're not getting a big chunk of hot pepper but a nice subtle flavor. You gotta try this!!!

The habanero butter is so good, and like others say, worth making a batch and keeping on hand in the fridge. I've been using it to butter my husband's lunch bagels (with turkey and cheese) and he loves it and has asked me to make more. I read the recipe wrong and only had time to marinate the salmon for about an hour. This wasn't enough to transfer the flavour and heat into the filet. We were disappointed with how mild and boring it was, but I think that was my fault. The habanero butter rocks though.

Wow!!! It was actually as good as it smelled! I used homegrown chillies instead of habanero, but was this really good! I will definately make this for guests! Thank you!!

Absolutely delicious! I have made many salmon dishes, each one better than the last. This is one is tops! Of course, you have to love spicy, but you wouldn't even look at a habenero recipe if you didn't! Will make over and over again!

Didn't change a thing and it was fabulous! Loved the habanero butter on corn, too! Too spicy for kids, but the adults all loved it!

My husband loves salmon and he says this is the best way he has ever had it prepared. He even prefers it to the salmon we order in most restaurants! This is a standby in our house. Thanks for the amazing recipe.
