Ingredients
  

For the Bourbon Glaze
  • 1/2 cup bourbon
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
For the Salmon
  • 4 fillets salmon skin-on

Method
 

Prepare the Bourbon Glaze
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the bourbon, brown sugar, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, and black pepper until well combined.
Marinate the Salmon
  1. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the bourbon glaze over them. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Grill the Salmon
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it on the grill, skin-side down.
  2. Grill for about 4-5 minutes, then brush with additional glaze. Flip and grill for another 4-5 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve
  1. Remove the salmon from the grill and drizzle with the remaining bourbon glaze before serving.
