Steps:
- Combine all ingredients in a small bowl.
- Mix well and refrigerate.
Tips:
- When marinating the salmon, use a glass or ceramic dish instead of metal, as the acids in the marinade can react with metal and alter the flavor of the fish.
- If you don't have time to marinate the salmon for the full 30 minutes, even a short marinade of 15-20 minutes will add flavor to the fish.
- To ensure that the salmon cooks evenly, make sure the fillets are of uniform thickness. If they are not, you can pound them out gently with a meat mallet.
- When cooking the salmon, start with the skin side down. This will help to crisp up the skin and prevent the fish from sticking to the pan.
- Do not overcrowd the pan when cooking the salmon. If you do, the fish will not cook evenly and may steam instead of sear.
- Use a fish spatula to gently flip the salmon halfway through cooking. This will prevent the fish from breaking apart.
- To test if the salmon is cooked through, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If the salmon flakes easily, it is done.
- Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Conclusion:
Bourbon-marinated salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The marinade infuses the salmon with a rich, smoky flavor, and the cooking method ensures that the fish is cooked perfectly. Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, and you have a meal that everyone will love.
