  1. Very tasty and easy. I cut back the brown sugar by half since it is very sweet as written. This is one of my go-to weeknight recipes during salmon season. The sauce also works well on chicken and goes great with a side of wild rice.
     
  2. R U serious??? This is so flipping good! And just as flipping easy! I had seen "prepared" bourbon salmon in grocery stores, but never bought Bcause they were usually made with farm raised salmon. So, I tried making this 2nite with wild caught salmon...so glad I did. Salmon is so darn good 4 U and as good as this tastes, I could eat this every nite! No xtra time needed to marinade....recipe tastes great exactly as posted!
     
  3. Lovely, tasty and almost healthy! I used olive oil in place of the butter using 1/2 the amount, and used a fillet in place of the steaks which brought the cooking time down in which I removed the Salmon and reduce the sugar to a glaze. Southern Comfort was my choice of bourbon. Just wonderful!!! Thanks for an easy quick tasty recipe.
     
  4. Fantastic glaze!! altered a bit cut back on butter by 2 Tblsp used half cup honey and cornstarch to tighten up glaze. a keeper for sure
     
  5. This was DELICIOUS! I cut the recipe in half and followed the instructions completely. Definately will make this for company...it was sooooo easy and tasty. This will be going in my Favorites of 2011. Made for Zaar Cookbook Tag game.

  1. After reading the reviews, I decided to use also olive oil and less. I used only 1/4 cup of brown sugar. I had 1 fillet (1 lb). Instead of Bourbon, I used Southern Comfort. It gave the salmon a nice taste. Even my son of 2 years old loved this salmon. Thanks Lucid :) Made for Please Review my Recipe.
