Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Salmon fillet
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 0.333 cup Jack Daniels whiskey
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons Minced garlic
- 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
- 0.25 cup Water
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the Jack Daniels glaze by combining brown sugar, Jack Daniels whiskey, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, crushed red pepper flakes, and water in a small saucepan.
Step 2
Heat the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring continuously until the brown sugar fully dissolves and the sauce thickens to a glaze-like consistency (about 8-10 minutes). Set aside.
Step 3
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium heat. Lightly oil the grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Pat the salmon fillets dry using paper towels. Season each fillet on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 5
Brush the salmon with olive oil to enhance its crispness and prevent light burning on the grill.
Step 6
Grill the salmon skin-side down first for about 4-5 minutes. Carefully flip and continue grilling for another 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 7
In the last 1-2 minutes of grilling, generously brush the Jack Daniels glaze onto the top of the salmon fillets, allowing the glaze to caramelize slightly as it heats.
Step 8
Remove the salmon from the grill and transfer to a serving dish. Drizzle any additional Jack Daniels glaze over the top for extra flavor.
Step 9
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh green salad.
