Even folks who don’t like lemon will probably like this sauce. Hubby is not a lemon fan but he sure enjoyed it. In fact, it was his idea to add the Limoncello Liqueur to the recipe. This would make any salmon lover happy. Great two ingredients this month.

Sounds wonderful Lori. I have pinned to our Fish Friday Foodies board and posted on our facebook page.
Thyme and lemon are perfect with fish, especially salmon! I wonder if I have any salmon in the freezer….
