   The other day I was looking for a different way to make salmon.   We have plenty recipes that I use regularly for salmon.   My husband stumbled across the recipe for Thai Barbecued Salmon.   For the benefit of those who do not subscribe to the magazine I will post the recipe here as well.   It was so easy to make and very tasty.   I am posting the recipe as is but letting you know that I chose to use flat leaf parsley in place of cilantro.  Not really a fan of cilantro.  Other than the minor change I made I would still recommend this recipe and will absolutely without a doubt make it again.   It was not as spicy as I thought it would be.   I am thinking if you want it spicier then you can adjust the amount of Thai chili sauce that it calls for.
