Irish Whisky Glazed Salmon Steak

Prep: 5 min
Cook: 15 min
Total: 20 min

Ingredients for 4 servings

  • 20 oz salmon steaks (or four 5oz filets)
  • pinch of sea salt & pepper
  • Whisky marinade
    • 1/4 cup Irish whiskey
    • 1 teaspoon raw ginger
    • 1 teaspoon fresh garlic, minced
    • 1/4 cup low sodium tamari
    • 3 tablespoons coconut sugar
    • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or raw honey)
    • 1/2 green onion stalk, finely diced

Steps

Step 1

Mix together the ingredients for the marinade and set aside.

Step 2

Set a carbon steel pan on high heat.  As the pan heats up, season both sides of the salmon with a pinch of sea salt & pepper.

Step 3

Spray the skillet with oil, then add the salmon.   Depending on the thickness of the fillet or steak, sear for 2 to 4 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 2 to 4 minutes, or until your desired readiness (i.e., medium or well done).

Step 4

In the final minutes of cooking, take the skillet off the heat, then pour the marinade over the salmon steak.  Continuously spoon the sauce over the salmon to glaze it.

Step 5

Enjoy with fresh vegetables or with my delicious potato & cauliflower colcannon.
