Add some flair to your next cookout with this smokey, cedar flavored salmon. Vegetables also taste delicious grilled on a plank.
1 lb salmon fillet (with skin on)
lemon-juice from 1/2 lemon
a generous dash of salt
pinch of pepper
2-3 pats of butter (optional)
herbs-shown with thyme. You can also use dill, parsley, chives, or a combination.
Soak the cedar board for 1.5-3 hours-the longer the better.
Place the salmon on the soaked cedar plank, skin side down and squeeze juice from 1/2 a lemon all over the fillet. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and desired herbs.
Place your loaded plank on the medium pre-heated grill. Grill for 10-12 minutes at this temperature until your fish reaches an internal temperature 145° minimum or up to 155°. If you do not have a thermometer then be sure the fish is opaque in color and flaky.
