Categories     Lunch

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 ½ tablespoons shallot, minced
1 ½ tablespoons champagne vinegar
½ lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
¼ cup olive oil, plus 2 tablespoons, divided
2 tablespoons Grill Mates® Brown Sugar Bourbon Seasoning
2 oz salmon fillet, skin removed
2 ears corn, shucked
8 spears asparagus
⅓ cup red onion, sliced into 1/4 in (6 mm) wedges
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 roma tomato, cut into ½-inch (1.24 cm) wedges and halved crosswise
⅓ cup cucumber, quartered lengthwise and sliced ¼ inch (6 mm) thick
½ lemon, juiced
4 cups crunchy spring salad mix

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to 350°F (180°C).
  • Make the vinaigrette. In a small bowl, whisk together the shallot, champagne vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, and red pepper flakes.
  • Make the salad: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil and the Grill Mates® Brown Sugar Bourbon Seasoning. Rub the seasoning paste over the salmon filets.
  • Place the salmon on the grill grates, skin-side up, and grill for 4-6 minutes, then flip and continue cooking for another 4-6 minutes, until white lines appear across the filet. Remove the salmon from the grill and flake into thick pieces with a fork. Let cool for about 10 minutes.
  • On a small baking sheet, toss the corn, asparagus, and red onion with the remaining ¼ cup olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and the black pepper until well coated.
  • Place the corn on the grill grates. Cook, turning often, until charred, about 10 minutes. Place the asparagus and red onion on the grill grates and cook, flipping once, for 3-4 minutes, until charred and tender. Remove the vegetables from the grill.
  • Stand the corn cobs upright and cut off the kernels, then transfer to a large bowl. Cut the asparagus into 1-inch pieces and add to the same bowl, along with the grilled red onion, tomato, cucumber, and lemon juice. Toss until well combined.
  • In a large salad bowl, combine the spring salad mix, grilled vegetable mixture, and salmon. Drizzle with the vinaigrette. Toss well, then serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Look for wild-caught salmon that is fresh or frozen. Avoid farmed salmon, as it is often treated with antibiotics and pesticides.
  • Brine the salmon: Brining the salmon in a mixture of water, salt, and sugar helps to keep it moist and flavorful. You can brine the salmon for up to 24 hours, but 1-2 hours is usually sufficient.
  • Use a good quality bourbon: The bourbon in this recipe adds a delicious smoky flavor to the salmon. Be sure to use a bourbon that you enjoy drinking.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook the salmon until it is just cooked through, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can garnish the salmon with fresh herbs, such as dill or parsley, and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Conclusion:

This Wakeman's Bourbon Brown Sugar Plank Grilled Salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a summer cookout. The bourbon and brown sugar glaze gives the salmon a slightly sweet and smoky flavor, while the plank grilling helps to keep the salmon moist and flavorful. Serve this salmon with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a fresh salad.
