Yapılışı

Mix the marinade

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, bourbon, black pepper, and garlic powder until the sugar dissolves.

Marinate the salmon

Place the salmon fillet in a zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour in the marinade and coat all sides. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Preheat the grill

Heat the grill to medium. Lightly oil the grates if needed, then let them get hot.

Grill the salmon

Remove the salmon from the marinade and let excess drip off. Set it on the grill skin-side down. Cook, turning as needed, until the surface is lightly caramelized and the center turns opaque.

Rest and serve

Let the salmon rest for 2–3 minutes before serving. Add a little extra cracked pepper on top if you like.

This grilled bourbon salmon recipe starts with a quick marinade made with soy sauce and brown sugar, then the salmon is cooked gently on the grill. The ingredient list is short and the steps are straightforward; follow the how-to and you’ll get a lightly caramelized outside with a juicy center.
