Saturday in the Kitchen

 Woke Saturday morning to this beautiful sky, as viewed from the front door.  7:10 a.m. CST


Cheddar's bourbon-glazed salmon was a topic of conversation at last week's retreat.  Someone said she had found individually-frozen glazed salmon at Sam's (or maybe it was Costco).  Another gal said she had bought some  glaze at the Tennessee Whiskey store.  Someone else said they had been using a sauce from Publix.

Well, my normal salmon preparation is a couple pats of butter and a dash of dill on top, but I was anxious to try the bourbon glaze.  I was able to find this 15-minute marinade at Food City.

I put about 1/4 cup in a zip bag along with two salmon pieces (about 2" wide) and flipped the bag back and forth a few times to get the fish covered in sauce.  After 15 minutes I popped it into a 400-degree oven for 20 minutes.  Oh, my! Delicious!  Sorry I didn't think to take a picture of the finished product.  We had roasted butternut squash along with and I think that would be interesting brushed with the marinade, as well.  

And this is what we saw as we cleared the dinner table.

  5. Sounds delicious! I love salmon but I can't get DH to eat it. Bummer. Maybe I'll make some for me and pork for him so I can try the bourbon sauce.

  8. What a spot you have there Libby! Just beautiful. Meanwhile, I usually just put lemon and lemon pepper on salmon in the oven. But this marinade sounds so good. And I think you're right, it could be used for other things for sure.
