Maple Whiskey Glazed Salmon with Cranberry Chutney & Roasted Potatoes
Ingredients
MAPLE WHISKEY GLAZED SALMON
1 fillet Superior Fresh Atlantic salmon
2 tbsp. olive oil
3/4 cup maple syrup
5 tbsp. whiskey of choice
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup orange juice
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
Salt & pepper
CRANBERRY CHUTNEY
2 cups fresh cranberries
1 cup chopped apples (preferably sweet)
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 tbsp. orange zest
1 tbsp. fresh ginger, grated
1 cinnamon stick
1 jalapeño seeded and chopped (optional)
ROASTED POTATOES
3 lbs. baby red potatoes
2 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. sea salt
2 tbsp. fresh rosemary, chopped
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Drizzle olive oil over halved potatoes, followed by coarse sea salt and chopped rosemary.
Roast for about 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and bottoms are crisp.
Cut fillet into portion sizes and place into a baking dish.
Whisk together maple syrup, whiskey, soy sauce, orange juice, and cayenne pepper. Pour the sauce over the salmon and let sit while you prepare the rest.
In a medium-sized pot, combine the cranberries, apples, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, orange zest, cinnamon stick, and jalapeño. Add in 1 cup of water and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes. The sauce should be thickened and cranberries burst. Remove from heat to cool.
Heat a medium size skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Add salmon to the hot skillet, skin side up. Sear for a few minutes, then flip and continue cooking for another few minutes until you’ve reached your desired doneness. Remove salmon from pan.
Reduce the heat, and add the whiskey mixture. Simmer until thickened.
