- 2 Tbsp pure maple syrup
- ¼ cup barbecue sauce
- Cooking spray
Instructions
Oven method:(skin on or removed)
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with foil. Coat the cooking spray or lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle with seasoning. In a small bowl, combine the maple syrup and bbq sauce; divide in half. Brush half of the sauce over each piece of the salmon.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes. Remove from oven and brush with remaining bbq sauce over the tops and sides of salmon.
Grill method: (skin removed)
- Preheat grill or grill pan on medium. Sprinkle the seasoning over the salmon and coat with cooking spray. In a small bowl, combine maple syrup and bbq sauce; divide in half.
- Grill salmon 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally, and until 145°F. Brush with one-half of sauce during the last minute of grill time. Serve with remaining one-half of sauce brushed over each piece.
Notes
- If you cannot find the Brown-Sugar Bourbon Seasoning, make your own seasoning: In a small bowl mix, 1 tsp brown sugar, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp onion powder, 1/4 tsp paprika, a little freshly ground black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Use in place of the brown-sugar bourbon seasoning.
- Or just salt and pepper before brushing on the maple-barbecue sauce.
