Crispy Bourbon Glazed Salmon | How Sweet It Is #seafood #healthy #recipes- made this and it was really tasty. Will make again!
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 pound fresh salmon
- 1 tablespoon coarse sea salt
- 1/2 tablespoon black pepper
- 3/4 cup bourbon
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
DIRECTIONS:
- Combine the bourbon, sugar, mustard, garlic, honey, vinegar and worcestershire in a small saucepan and whisk. Heat over high heat and allow it to come to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and let simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until mixture reduces by about half. Pour mixture in a bowl and let sit at room temperature while the salmon cooks. The glaze will thicken a bit at this time.
- Preheat the broiler in your oven. Make sure the salmon is dry and season it with the coarse salt and pepper on both sides. Lay it on a non-stick baking sheet. Broil for about 5-6 minutes on each side, until the top develops a crispy crust. If your salmon is very thick, you may need to go a little longer.
- Remove the salmon from the oven and brush it with the bourbon glaze. Add as much or as little as you would like. Feel free to use it as a dipping sauce too. The glaze can be stored in the fridge for a week or two – just allow it to come to room temperature (or slightly warm it) before using.
