KENTUCKY BOURBON AND MANDARIN-GLAZED SALMON

Salmon

Directions

1. Combine freshly squeezed Sunkist^™ mandarin juice, Kentucky Bourbon, brown sugar, reduced sodium soy sauce, chopped shallot, garlic powder, and ground ginger. Mix well. Pour into a long, shallow dish.
2. Place salmon in the mixture and allow to marinate, covered and refrigerated, for 30 minutes. Flip the salmon one time after 15 minutes for best results.
3. Remove from the marinade and grill/cook until the internal temperature reaches 145F. Throughout the cooking process, continuously baste the salmon with the marinade for optimal flavor.
4. Top with homemade Sunkist^™ mandarin marmalade and fresh mandarin zest.

Marmelade Topping

Directions

1. Peel 15 Sunkist^™ mandarins and separate each section.
2. Over medium heat, add butter to your skillet, allowing it to coat the entire cooking service.
3. After the butter is melted, add the mandarins and allow them to soften and cook for around 10-15 minutes.
4. Add freshly squeezed mandarin juice, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well and cook for an additional 15 minutes (or until the topping has reached your desired consistency).
