Brown Sugar Salmon Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

• 1/3 cup bourbon
• 2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
• 2/3 cup soy sauce
• 6 6- ounce fillets of fresh wild-caught skinned salmon
• 3 tablespoons sesame oil

Instructions

• 1 Pour the bourbon, soy, and brown sugar into a medium-sized bowl and whisk very
  well until completely combined, then transfer it to a plastic slider bag with
  the salmon and toss around and marinate in the refrigerator overnight or up to
  48 hours, and 2 hours minimum.
• 2 Once the salmon is done marinating, remove it from the bag and set it aside.
  Discard the marinade.
• 3 Add the 3 tablespoons of sesame oil to a large sauté pan over medium heat and
  heat until the oil just begins to smoke lightly. Add in the salmon.
• 4 Once the salmon is in the pan, turn the heat down to medium. Cook for 2 to 3
  minutes per side for a medium to medium-well internal temperature. Be sure to
  watch closely, as the brown sugar and soy will want to burn rather quickly. It
  can go from caramelization to scorching very fast.
• 5 When it’s finished cooking, remove it from the pan, and set it aside.
