Cherry Glazed Salmon Bjs Food

CHERRY CHIPOTLE GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, whisk together tart cherry juice, chipotle in adobo sauce, honey, and dark brown sugar. Bring to a boil then keep on a low simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced by half and has slightly thickened. It'll get thicker as it cools. It will be a liquid/loose glaze.
• Cook salmon however you like and to your desired doneness: in a skillet, in the oven, grill, etc.
• Brush a generous amount of glaze on the salmon prior to serving and use additional glaze, as desired.

MAPLE CHERRY GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Make the glaze by bringing the cherry juice to a simmer in a non-reactive saucepan and reduce to 1/2 cup.
• Add the remaining ingredients; bring to a quick boil, reduce temperature and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove cinnamon stick and stir in vanilla.
• Cool to room temperature and then chill.
• Preheat grill on highest setting; rub the salmon with oil; season with salt and black pepper.
• Divide the glaze using half to baste the salmon while cooking and the other half to drizzle over the salmon when serving.
• Before cooking the salmon, place the 1/3 cup cherry juice and dry tart cherries in a small saucepan, bring to a boil, turn off heat, cover and allow to stand to reconstitute while the fish cooks.
• Place the salmon on the grate and turn down the flame to the medium setting; baste the salmon with the glaze and grill for approximately 6 minutes on each side or until it flakes easily.
• Drizzle the salmon with the cherry glaze and top with reconstituted cherries.
