Directions
This is so flavorful, and simple to make, perfect for weeknight cooking or fancy enough to serve if youre having guests. Aside from soaking the plank in water, the rest takes under 30 minutes to make. Some grilled sides you can make with this recipe are Rosemary Roasted Baby Potatoes or Grilled Zucchini and Tomato Salad. You may also like this brown sugar spice rubbed cedar plank salmon.,,Soak the planks at least 1 hour. Turn the left two burners of the grill on so youll have indirect heat on the right side and direct heat on the left, then close the lid. Youll want the grill to get very hot. Because the smoke is what gives you such great flavor, I place the plank with the fish on the direct heat side for about 3 to 4 minutes, until it starts crackling and smoking, keeping a close eye on it and a water bottle handy just in case. Then I move it to the indirect heat side, close the lid and let the heat finish cooking the salmon. The results are perfectly cooked juicy salmon, with just enough smoky flavor and no fire!
