Ingredients
  

Salmon

  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each) seasoned with salt and pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Bourbon Peach Glaze

  • 2 peaches, sliced medium, peeled
  • 0.25 cup bourbon
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

Instructions
 

Season and Sear

  • Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear fillets skin-side down for 2 minutes.
    4 salmon fillets (6 oz each), 1 tbsp olive oil

Prepare the Glaze

  • Add sliced peaches to the skillet and sauté for 3 minutes until edges are golden.
  • Pour in bourbon, honey, and Dijon mustard. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 8 minutes until the mixture thickens to a silky consistency.
    2 peaches, sliced, 0.25 cup bourbon, 2 tbsp honey

Roast Salmon

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Place seared salmon skin-side down on a baking sheet, brush generously with the peach-bourbon glaze, and roast for 12–15 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.

Rest and Serve

  • Let salmon rest for 5 minutes before serving to retain juices.

Notes

Simmer the glaze for the full 8 minutes to achieve a clingy, glossy coating that won’t run off.
Resting the salmon keeps it tender and juicy; slice only after that brief pause.
