Make salmon for your next dinner and it will take you less than 30 minutes. Bourbon and maple syrup add a great flavor and caramelization that tops it all off.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb salmon fillet
• 2 oz walnut oil
• 2 oz pure maple syrup
• 2 oz bourbon whiskey
• 1/2 tsp rosemary
• 1/2 tsp thyme

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cover cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Lightly brush or spray foil with oil. Place salmon on foil skin side down and crimp edges all the way around until a bowl, or pocket forms. Edges should be slightly higher than salmon. Drizzle syrup and whiskey on top of salmon. Sprinkle top with rosemary and thyme. Cook uncovered in 400 degree oven for about 25 minutes.

Number of Servings: 2-4 servings

Notes from the Cook: Any oil or whiskey will do. Also, fresh sprigs of herbs instead of dried works nicely with this also.
