Honey Ginger Salmon

I got this recipe from my brother and his wife several years ago.  I am not sure where the recipe originated so I don't know who to give the credit to.  I did make a couple of minor adjustments but I certainly can't take credit for the recipe.  We have cooked it in the oven and on the grill.  It tastes great both ways.  In this picture, we cooked it on the grill.  I like to serve this with rice and a vegetable, such as roasted asparagus.
