3-5 skinless salmon fillets
3 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp of Breckenridge Bourbon (Buy Now)
3 tbsp of soy sauce
2-4 tbsp of freshly chopped ginger
1 half of a lime juice
3 garlic cloves minced
Freshly ground black pepper
Olive Oil
1/4 cup of green onions sliced
1 tbs of sesame seeds.
Combine all your ingredients but the green onions and sesame seeds into a bowl, and then lay your fish down in the bowl. If you’re using this for camping you can just do it in a plastic bag ahead of time or the night before. Let it marinate for at least 2-3 hours.
Get your skillet hot and add enough olive oil to lightly coat the pan. Then gently add your fish and the contents of the marinade for about 3 minutes on each side. You want your marinade to thicken up a little and reduce by about 1/4.
Once your fish is fully cooked, just garnish with green onions and sesame seeds and you’re all set! Super easy and quick.
