Salmon Preparation

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparation

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. If using a grill, oil the grates.

  2. 2

    Season the Salmon

    Rub each salmon fillet with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. For blackened salmon, also coat with Cajun seasoning.

  3. 3

    Choose Your Cooking Method

    For blackened salmon, place the fillets on the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until charred. For grilled salmon, place the fillets directly on the grill for approximately 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through.

  4. 4

    Bourbon Soy Glaze

    In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, bourbon, honey, and minced garlic. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Brush over the salmon during the last minute of cooking.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the salmon from heat, drizzle any remaining sauce over the top, and serve immediately.
