Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/3 cup (5 Tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup (90g) honey
1 - 2 garlic cloves, minced (I use 2)
1 teaspoon ground chipotle chili pepper*
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 individual salmon fillets (or a large 2 lb. (900g) fillet)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk everything together (except for the salmon of course). Place the salmon in a tupperware, baking dish, or zipped-top bag. Pour half of the marinade on top. Give everything a nice shake. Reserve the rest for step 4. Marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 8 hours.
  • Meanwhile, fire up the grill to medium-high heat or preheat oven to 375°F (191°C).
  • You can grill the salmon on foil or on a cedar plank. Grill the salmon skin side down for 15 minutes- about 10 minutes per 1-inch inch thickness measured from the thickest part of the fillet or until the thickest part reaches 145°F (63°C) internal heat.
  • Or bake the salmon on a lined baking sheet for 15-20 minutes depending on thickness and until the thickest part reaches 145°F (63°C) internal heat.
  • Brush the warm salmon with remaining marinade before serving. Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for a few days. Reheat to your liking.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup frozen blackberries, thawed
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter, melted
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon golden brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons chipotle powder, divided
4 6- to 8-ounce salmon fillets with skin

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Press berries through sieve into medium bowl. Discard seeds. Transfer 1/4 cup berry puree to medium bowl. Whisk in honey, butter, and lime juice for glaze. Transfer 6 tablespoons glaze to small bowl and reserve as sauce.
  • Place rack on rimmed baking sheet. Mix brown sugar, cumin, salt, and chipotle on plate. Dip flesh side of salmon in spice mixture; place coated side up on rack. Brush with remaining glaze.
  • Bake salmon until just opaque in center, about 15 minutes. Serve, passing reserved glaze separately as sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Look for a fresh, firm fillet with bright pink or orange flesh. Avoid any fish that has a slimy texture or an off odor.
  • Make sure the salmon is cooked through: The best way to check is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If it flakes easily, it's done.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it's cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side.
  • Use a good quality chipotle honey glaze: The glaze is what really makes this dish special. Make sure to use a glaze that has a good balance of sweetness and heat.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served hot, right out of the oven. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

This salmon with chipotle honey glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the glaze adds a wonderful flavor. Serve it with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
