By Marcin · American · Serves 4 · 30 min
Ingredients
- 1 Salmon filet
- 1.5 tbsp All purpose rub
- 1.5 tbsp Maple bourbon rub
- 1 Orange
- 2 Limes
- 1/2 cup Soy sauce
- 1/2 cup Honey
- 3 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp Chili crunch
- 1 tbsp Ginger paste
- 1/2 tbsp Maple bourbon rub
- 1 Orange - freshly squeezed juice and zest
- 1 Lime - freshly squeezed juice and zest
Instructions
- Start by trimming the salmon filet to make it even.
- Season the entire salmon filet with an All Purpose and Maple Bourbon rub.
- Preheat the grill to a medium heat around 375 degrees Fahrenheit and set it for indirect heat. For an extra hint of smokiness, I added a wood chunk on top of the charcoal.
- Cut up an orange and limes to make a bed of citrus for the fish right on the grill.
- Place the seasoned salmon filet on the citrus and grill until the internal temperature reads 135 degrees Fahrenheit.
- While the salmon is cooking, make the glaze. In a saucepan, add soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, freshly squeezed orange and lime juice, zest from the orange and lime, chili crunch, ginger paste and maple bourbon rub.
- Mix the sauce ingredients together and simmer over low heat until the sauce reduces by half. It will thicken slightly but will still be runny.
- Brush the chili glaze on top of the citrus salmon and continue to grill until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees.
- Remove the chili glazed citrus salmon from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes.
- Before serving this delicious chili glazed citrus salmon, touch up the top with a few more brushes of the chili glaze. Add fresh orange and lime zest for color and freshness. Enjoy!
