Honey Bourbon Salmon
Evan is out of town for another Bachelor Party so I thought I would take advantage of this time alone and do all of the girlie things I long to do; watch reality TV all night while eating cherries, putting on a clay mask and giving myself a pedicure, and eating things like salmon, shrimp and avocados. What could be better! I actually bought a large piece of salmon a few weeks ago at Sam’s and cut it up into individual portions, each with a different sauce/marinade.
For tonight, I pulled out a honey-bourbon glazed salmon. The salmon takes no time to defrost, though you could just marinate this in a fridge for a bit. The outside is slightly sweet and offers a bit of a crisp crust. The inside is moist and delicious. I served this with sauteed spinach and a pomegranate spritzer and I had quite a healthy meal!
Honey Bourbon Glazed Salmon
serves 1-2
2 pieces of salmon, about the size of your palm
2 T. bourbon
2 T. honey
minced garlic and pepper to taste
1. Place all ingredients in a ziploc bag and mix around. Throw into freezer or fridge to marinate.
2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees and place thawed salmon on a tin foil lined baking sheet sprayed with a bit of oil. (We like easy cleanup!) Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes nicely.
3. Serve with your favorite sauteed or roasted veggies!

Yes, quite a healthy meal you had.
Especially since you used honey in it.
I’ve just finished writing about honey and how it can help against stomach ulcer.
Since you used honey, I linked you up there, not only this post but also the other one with lemon.
Cheers!
