An Asian and Whiskey Grilled Salmon Recipe

Recipe provided by Melissa Cookston

This easy to make meal is a superb summer meal that’s light and full of flavour.

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 6-8 oz salmon filets

  • 1/2 cup peanut oil

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce

  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice

  • 1" knob Fresh Ginger Root cut into thin strips

  • 1/4 cup good whiskey

DIRECTIONS

Mix all marinade ingredients together. Place salmon filets in a resealable bag and pour marinade over them. Squeeze out as much air as possible and seal. Place in fridge and allow to marinate for 2 hours up to 12 hours.

Heat your grill up to medium-high, and lightly oil grates. Grill salmon for two minutes, then give a quarter turn to develop diamond grill marks. Cook additional 2 minutes then turn filets over. Cook for approximately 3-4 more minutes, or until the desired internal temperature is reached.
