A cedar planked salmon that turns salmon haters into salmon lovers.
Ingredients
  • Cedar Planked Salmon
  • 1 cedar plank
  • 1 lb salmon or arctic char
  • 1 tsp fresh dill
  • 2 garlic cloves chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Fresh ground salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Soak cedar plank for 1-2 hours.
  2. Combine salmon with dill, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil and ground salt and pepper in a shallow large bowl or dish so that the salmon can lie flat.  Flip over the salmon so that the skin side is up.  Let marinate for 30-40 minutes.
  3. Place salmon skin side down on flank.
  4. Cook on gas grill on medium high-high heat for 15-20 minutes until the top and sides are crispy and plank is quite burnt  (!!) (time depends on thickness of the salmon).
