How to Make Grilled Orange And Bourbon Salmon

  1. In a large zip-top plastic bag, combine the orange zest, orange juice, bourbon, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and olive oil.
  2. Add the salmon fillets to the bag.
  3. Seal the bag tightly and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 90 minutes, turning the bag occasionally to ensure even marinating.
  4. Remove the salmon fillets from the bag, reserving the marinade.
  5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or preheat your broiler. Lightly coat the grill grates or a broiler pan with cooking spray.
  6. Place the salmon fillets on the prepared grill or broiler pan.
  7. Grill or broil for 6 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Baste the salmon frequently with the reserved marinade during cooking.
  8. Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh orange slices and parsley (optional).
