directions

Step 1

To Marinate: Combine maple syrup, bourbon, soy sauce, lime

juice, ginger, pepper and garlic in a large zip-lock plastic

bag. Add salmon fillets, seal bag and marinate in fridge for 30

minutes, turning the bag once. Remove fillets from bag and set

aside the marinade. DO NOT MARINATE FOR LONGER THAN 30 MINUTES

Step 2

Preheat BBQ, broiler, or oven to 400°F

Step 3

To BBQ or broil: Place fillets skin side down on broiler pan

coated with cooking spray. Broil 11 minutes or until fish

flakes easily when tested with a fork.

Step 4

To roast: Line a baking dish with tin foil or parchment

paper. Place fish skin side down in center of oven and bake for

20 minutes or so, until fish flakes easily.

Step 5

In the meantime: bring the rest of the marinade to a boil in

a small saucepan on medium high heat on top of stove. Reduce to

a little more than half. Allow to simmer while fish is cooking.

Use to baste fish and serve as sauce.
