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.

BOURBON - GLAZED SALMON



Bourbon - Glazed Salmon image

A great blend of flavors. I would suggest not adding the marinade to the skillet until the salmon has been turned for the final 4 minutes of cooking. The sauce tends to burn if it gets too hot or is cooked too long.

Categories     High Protein

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons Bourbon
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon lime juice
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon freshley ground black pepper
4 (6 ounce) skinless salmon fillets
cooking spray
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine first 7 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add fish to bag, seal. Marinate in refrigerator 1 1/2 hours, turning occasionally.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat Coat pan with cooking spray. Add fish and marinade to pan (see my note at the top of the page under Description), cook fish for 4 minutes on each side until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
  • Place 1 fillet on each of 4 plates; drizzle each serving with about 2 t. sauce. Sprinkle each serving with 1 T. green onions. And if using, sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds.
  • NOTE: I would consider doubling the sauce portion of the recipe. I did and was glad I did. Since there are just the two of us, I also put the remaining two uncooked pieces of salmon in the freezer and added half the marinade to the bag. I'll include an update when I cook the salmon. I'm not sure if freezing it in the marinade might not be too much for a delicate piece if fish. UPDATE: Worked great!

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Look for a wild-caught, sustainably sourced salmon fillet that is about 1 pound in size and 1 inch thick.
  • Make sure the salmon is cooked through: The internal temperature of the salmon should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit when measured with a meat thermometer.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it is cooked through, then remove it from the heat.
  • Use a good quality bourbon: The bourbon will add a lot of flavor to the glaze, so use a bourbon that you enjoy drinking.
  • Don't skimp on the peanuts: The peanuts add a nice crunch and nutty flavor to the dish.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy: Crispy bacon will add a lot of flavor and texture to the dish.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked.

Conclusion:

Bourbon glazed salmon with peanuts and bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The salmon is cooked in a flavorful bourbon glaze and then topped with crispy peanuts and bacon. The result is a dish that is both sweet and savory, and it is sure to please everyone at the table.
