Ingredients
For the Marinade
- 1/4 cup Bourbon syrup Halal alternatives are available
- 1/4 cup Peach jam Optionally homemade for less sweetness
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil Can substitute with avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt Adjust to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon Pepper Adjust to taste
For the Salmon
- 4 filets Salmon filets Fresh and high-quality preferred
- 2 medium Fresh peaches Juicy and ripe
Instructions
Preparation
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine bourbon syrup, peach jam, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir gently until well blended.
- Submerge salmon filets in the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- While the salmon is marinating, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the marinated salmon filets on the prepared sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart.
- Slice fresh peaches into wedges and scatter them around the salmon.
Cooking
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until the salmon is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve warm, allowing everyone to enjoy the caramelized glaze with the tender peaches.
Notes
Avoid overcooking the salmon; it should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). Allow enough time for marinating to enhance flavors.
