Lemon Butter Salmon

Salmon can be done every which way you can come up with just about. Any fish really, but keep in mind each fish has a different taste, so some sauces won’t work with others. This is a simple & always tasty dish in my house. I pair it up with green beans, or sugar snap peas with pearl onions, or just a simple salad.
  Remember not to over cook, if it’s overcooked even by a few minutes you can taste the dryness of it.

Ingredients
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 cup butter, cubed
6 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
5 salmon fillets or steaks (6 ounces each)
Directions
In a small skillet, saute garlic in butter; whisk in the lemon juice, salt, pepper and pepper sauce. Transfer 2/3 cup to a serving bowl; set aside.
Place salmon in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Drizzle with remaining lemon butter. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat for 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with reserved lemon butter.
