Grilled Tequila Salmon - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 -3 limes
1/3 cup tequila
1/4 cup olive oil
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 salmon steaks, each about 1 1/2 inches thick or 2 lbs salmon fillets
1 tablespoon cold butter (optional)

Preparation

Grate peel from limes & place in a bowl.
Squeeze out 1/2 cup juice from limes.
Add to bowl along with tequila & oil.
Finely chop peppers and stir into lime mixture along with sugar, chili powder & salt.
Place salmon into large resealable plastic bag.
To support the bag, place in a large bowl.
Pour marinade over fish and seal bag.
Let marinade for at least an hour--but preferably 4 hours.
Lightly oil grill and turn BBQ to medium.
Remove salmon from marinade & place directly on hot grill.
BBQ, with lid closed, for about 7- 8 minutes per side or until a knife point inserted into the center of the salmon feels warm.
While salmon is grilling, pour remaining marinade into a saucepan.
Boil vigorously, uncovered, stirring often, until sauce is reduced by half--about 3 minutes.
If you want a thicker sauce, add butter & whisk constantly for about another minute.
