Sweet Bourbon Salmon Recipe

How to make it

---

• Depending on how fresh your fish is. I like to wash the fish in ice water and lemon juice then rinse in cold water.
• Mix in a bowl Bourbon, Soy sauce, Pineapple juice, and brown sugar. Dust fish with garlic powder, Onion Powder, Black pepper, Red Pepper, Parsley and bown sugar. Add marinade to a baking pan and lay fish in skin side down. Use a dish that tightly fits the fish. so the marinade will come 3/4 the way up the fish. Cover and let rest in the fridge for about 2 hours.

• Optional

  ---

• If you bought a large can of pineapple you can make a boat with aluminum foil and add pineapple bits to it and cook while fish cooks.
• Top your fish with the pineapple bits when brought to the table. See Photo

• Cooking

  ---

• Use a grill or a stove top. Stove top seems to let the fish get a sweeter taste. Do not add marinade to skillet. If you grill you can pour marinade over fish till you flip.
• If using a grill leave the door down half of the cook time time. It will add a nice smokey taste from the marinade steaming off. Hickory or cedar chips help too.
• Cook skin side down for most the cooking on med-high temp. Wait for fish to go bright pink 3/4 the way up. Before flipping heavily Dust the tops of the fish with brown sugar. Flip and remove skins Cook only a few minutes just to finish the cooking. With skin removed dust the fish with brown sugar and flip See Photo. Turn heat all the way up and cook for about 30 secs.
• Serve and enjoy
