To ensure a successful cooking experience, follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking.
2. Prepare the Glaze: In a saucepan, combine bourbon, brown sugar, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Prepare the Peaches: In a separate pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add peach slices and sauté briefly until they become tender, about 3-4 minutes. Stir into the bourbon glaze and remove from heat.
4. Season the Salmon: Season each salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Place them in a baking dish, skin side down.
5. Add the Glaze: Pour the bourbon-peach glaze over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated.
6. Bake the Salmon: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
7. Garnish: Once cooked, remove the dish from the oven and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
8. Serve Immediately: Allow the salmon to rest for a few minutes before serving.

With these straightforward instructions, you’ll create a mouthwatering meal that impresses without overwhelming you.
