Instead of cooking the salmon and marinade in the skillet, we grilled the salmon (alongside some red potatoes tossed in olive oil, garlic, and crushed red pepper) and boiled the marinade down to a delicious sauce on the stove (alongside some fresh green beans from the local farmers' market). Then we drizzled the sauce over the salmon and sprinkled the fillets with sesame seeds. We also didn't happen to have any bourbon, which the recipe originally called for, so we used whiskey instead.
We HIGHLY recommend this one...and for those of you who don't have a freezer full of Alaskan salmon, it would be good on chicken too! :)
