Orange And Bourbon Glazed Salmon Recipes

ORANGE AND BOURBON GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F, line a shallow baking pan with aluminum foil and coat it with nonstick spray.
• Arrange the salmon fillets, skin side down on the prepared baking sheet and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Combine the orange marmalade, bourbon, brown sugar and cayenne in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until thickened to the consistency of maple syrup, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the butter until melted and allow the mixture to cool.
• Divide the glaze evenly over each of the salmon fillets and roast until the glaze is lightly caramelized and the fish is cooked to medium doneness, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and serve immediately.

ORANGE GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

BOURBON - GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Combine first 7 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add fish to bag, seal. Marinate in refrigerator 1 1/2 hours, turning occasionally.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat Coat pan with cooking spray. Add fish and marinade to pan (see my note at the top of the page under Description), cook fish for 4 minutes on each side until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
• Place 1 fillet on each of 4 plates; drizzle each serving with about 2 t. sauce. Sprinkle each serving with 1 T. green onions. And if using, sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds.
• NOTE: I would consider doubling the sauce portion of the recipe. I did and was glad I did. Since there are just the two of us, I also put the remaining two uncooked pieces of salmon in the freezer and added half the marinade to the bag. I'll include an update when I cook the salmon. I'm not sure if freezing it in the marinade might not be too much for a delicate piece if fish. UPDATE: Worked great!
