Time 35m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 salmon fillet, skin removed
1/4 cup pineapple juice
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup beef bouillon
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup Bourbon
1/4 cup soy sauce
cornstarch, slurry (as needed)
2 tablespoons roasted peanuts, chopped
5 slices smoked bacon, chopped

Steps:

  • For the glaze, combine the juice, brown sugar, bouillon, pepper, bourbon and soy sauce. Bring to a boil and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn heat down to a simmer. Thicken to your desired thickness with cornstarch slurry (equal parts cold water mixed with cornstarch -- be careful, it will thicken quickly!).
  • For the topping, fry the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Add peanuts and cook until the peanuts are heated through and hot, about 1 minute.
  • Grill the salmon over medium-high heat to desired doneness. (I cook 2 minutes, turn 45 degrees and cook 2 minutes more, flip the salmon and cook 2-3 minutes, rotate 45 degrees and cook 2-3 minutes more, until it flakes nicely) Baste with the glaze while you are grilling the salmon.
  • Finish by topping the salmon with the bacon and peanuts.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Use fresh, high-quality salmon fillets for the best results. Look for fillets that are firm and have a bright, vibrant color.
  • Cut the salmon into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If the pieces are too thick, they will take longer to cook and may be overcooked on the outside before the inside is cooked through.
  • Use a good quality bourbon: The bourbon will add a smoky, rich flavor to the salmon. Choose a bourbon that you enjoy drinking neat, as the flavor will be concentrated when it is cooked.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it is important to cook it carefully. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook the salmon until it is just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Serve immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that it is moist and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Baked bourbon and brown sugar salmon nuggets are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The salmon is tender and flavorful, with a slightly smoky flavor from the bourbon. The brown sugar adds a touch of sweetness, and the crispy coating adds a nice contrast to the tender fish. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
