Bourbon-Glazed Salmon

Ingredients

• 900 g thick salmon filets

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 1 tsp kosher salt

• 1 tsp black pepper

For the bourbon glaze

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 onion, chopped

• 2 cups brown sugar

• 1/2 cup beef broth

• 1/2 cup soy sauce

• 1/2 cup red wine vinegar

• 2 tbsp bourbon

• 1 tbsp Tabasco sauce

Garnish

•  3 green onions, sliced

Method

Cut salmon filets into 50 even cubes. Coat with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.

Place a veggie basket on the grill. Heat grill to high.

Place the salmon skin side down in the veggie basket. Grill for 4-5 minutes.

Flip. Grill for 3 more minutes. Drizzle with glaze (recipe below) and grill for 2 more minutes. Remove from grill.

Place the cubes on a platter or mini appetiser plate. Spoon on more glaze and sprinkle with green onions to garnish. Add a decorative toothpick.

For the bourbon glaze

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a sauce pot.

Sauté garlic and onions over medium heat for five minutes, until tender.

Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Continue boiling until thickened and it coats the back of a spoon, about 15 minutes.
