There is the most delicious BBQ place right by our house, and they have the tastiest cherry chipotle BBQ sauce. I love it slathered on everything – potatoes, ribs, steak, you name it, and I’ve probably slathered it in that sauce!
I found this sauce with cherry preserves, chipotle peppers, brown sugar, and olive oil. I poured it over salmon, and it did not disappoint!
I took some cues from one of our most popular salmon recipes (our easy baked salmon), and cooked it so it was nice and flaky, then I added the sauce to the top and served it with some fresh steamed broccoli. It was delicious!
