Mustard and Bourbon Glazed Salmon

 

I’ve been cooking with bourbon lately, using it recently to plump raisins for oatmeal raisin cookies, then to plump raisins to include in pumpkin muffins, so I decided to give it a try on salmon. This week’s fish dish is a wonderful fillet of Coho salmon glazed with this mustard bourbon sauce and baked. It is flavorful and delicious, company worthy, and nothing could be easier.Mustard and Bourbon Glazed Salmon

 2 T. Maille Old Style mustard*

1 T. dark brown sugar

1 T. bourbon

1/8 t. grated Melissa’s fresh ginger

Salt and pepper

2 Coho salmon fillets

 Preheat oven to 400°F. Put a piece of heavy-duty foil on top of a baking sheet and spray with PAM; set aside.

In a small bowl mix together mustard, brown sugar, bourbon, and ginger. Salt and pepper salmon fillets. Place skin side down on prepared baking sheet, and slather the tops with the mustard/brown sugar/bourbon glaze. Slide onto the top rack of your oven, and roast for 12 to 15 until the fish flakes nicely. Serve immediately.

 Serves 2.
