Steps:
- Heat the grill to medium and prepare it for indirect cooking. On a charcoal grill, bank the coals on one side and cook on the cooler side. On a gas grill, turn off one burner and cook on the cooler side. Check for and remove any small bones from the fillet, brush on all sides with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Lay the fish, skin side down, directly on the cooking grate, on the cooler side of the grill. Cook until opaque, but still moist, about 20-25 min. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, orange zest and juice, bourbon and a pinch of salt. Brush the glaze over the fillet in the last 10 minutes of cooking. Do NOT turn the fillet during cooking. Transfer the fillet to a serving platter by sliding a spatula between the fish and the skin. Keep the fillet warm. (Optional) Slide the skin over to the hot side and cook until bubbling with a closed lid. Serve the skin as you would a chip.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Look for a fresh, wild-caught salmon fillet that is about 1 inch thick.
- Make sure your grill is clean and well-oiled. This will help prevent the salmon from sticking.
- Cook the salmon over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist.
- Baste the salmon with bourbon glaze frequently. This will help to keep the fish moist and add flavor.
- Cook the salmon until it is cooked through. The fish should be opaque in the center and flake easily with a fork.
- Let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the fish.
Conclusion:
Bourbon grilled salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The bourbon glaze adds a sweet and smoky flavor to the fish, and the grilled vegetables are a healthy and colorful side dish. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your friends and family!
