Kiki's Irish Whiskey Glazed Salmon with Lemon-Herb Rice

2 lbs Salmon Fillet, cut into 4 pieces

1/4 cup butter

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup Irish Whiskey

1 scallion, chopped

Put butter into a skillet and heat till melted, add brown sugar stirring until sugar is dissolved, place salmon fillets (skin side up) into skillet, cover and cook 5 minutes on medium-high. heat. Remove lid and flip fillets, they should have a nice caramelization on the fillet when you flip, add whiskey, cover and continue cooking for 5 minutes. If sauce seems to thick add more whiskey to thin. Keep a close eye on the fish while cooking to make sure the sauce does't turn into candy! LOL Serve over lemon-herb rice, spoon sauce over fish.
