I created this sweet and spicy salmon after being challenged to use healthier ingredients. The fresh plum sauce really complements the smoky grilled fish. -Cheryl Hochstettler, Richmond, Texas

I followed the recipe exactly and the salmon turned out dry. I think I should have cooked it for less time.
