    Step1

    If using frozen salmon fillets, thaw them overnight if necessary, wash them, and pat the fish thoroughly dry. If the fillet pieces are too thick, cut them lengthwise into halves so they can absorb enough marinade. Ideally, the salmon fillets should be no thicker than two fingers.

    Step2

    Then, mix the remaining ingredients to create the marinade. Ensure the whiskey used is pure, without additional flavors, to avoid altering the fish's taste.

    Step3

    Place the fish fillets in a deep dish and pour the entire marinade generously over them until the pieces are fully coated. Let the mixture marinate for at least one hour (preferably overnight) before grilling the fish.

    Step4

    Grease the grill grate to prevent the salmon from sticking and place the fillets on the grill over high heat. After four minutes on each side, the salmon fillets are done and can be carefully removed with a wide spatula.
