Can you “Marry Me” anything?
A number of “Marry Me” recipes, a protein draped in a creamy sun-dried tomato sauce (“Marry Me Chicken”; my colleague Alexa Weibel’s tomato beans, which readers are calling “Marry Me Beans”), made my editors and me wonder: just because you can drench something in that dreamy 90s pink sauce, should you?

Lindsay Funston’s Tuscan-style chicken recipe raked in millions of views after it was published on delish.com in 2016 and found new life on TikTok years later. “Marry Me Salmon” is a fantastic riff, a fish dinner you can cook for yourself and the love of your life any day of the week. It’s also nothing new.
