Brown Sugar and Bourbon Salmon

• 1-1/2 pound skinless salmon fillet
• 1/2 cup bourbon
• 1/2 cup chopped scallions, green parts only
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons dark sesame oil

Mix marinade ingredients in a gallon zip-lock bag. Put the salmon in the bag and refrigerate for 1 to 8 hours.

Place salmon without the marinade in a 9-by-13 inch glass baking dish and bake at 425 degrees for about 13 minutes. Put the reserved marinade in a small saucepan and reduce over medium heat.

WARNING! Baking with the marinade resulted in a fireball exploding out of the oven due to the evaporated alcohol!

Serve over rice, spooning the marinade over the salmon.
