Cooking Instructions
- Preheat the broiler to high. Season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Add salmon to a sheet pan.
- Whisk the peach jam, honey, bourbon, garlic powder, and chipotle powder until smooth. Brush the glaze upon the fish covering the top and sides.
- Broil the salmon at least 6 inches from the heat element to an internal temperature of 145°F – about 10 minutes depending on the thickness of your fillets. Keep an eye out to make sure the salmon glaze doesn’t burn.
- Serve this peach glazed salmon with sautéed whole green beans for an elegant touch or try roasted broccoli or asparagus.
- Optional: While the salmon is cooking, consider adding any extra peaches to a saucepan and cooking them down over medium heat with a little honey, bourbon, and a pinch of salt. Spoon the cooked peaches over the finished salmon or serve alongside the vegetables.
Notes
For a non-alcoholic substitution for bourbon, you can use equal parts non-alcoholic vanilla extract or leave it out and add a little water if needed.
