Honey Garlic Cedar Plank Salmon
Ingredients
- 1 side of salmon
- salt
- coarse black pepper
- juice of one lemon
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp crushed garlic
- honey, for drizzling
Instructions
- Soak cedar plank for at least 30 minutes, ideally at least an hour. Weigh it down using cans if needed. Preheat grill on high.
- Add salmon to plank. You may need to first cut your salmon if the planks you have are smaller than your fillet. Season with salt and pepper. Squeeze one lemon.
- In a small bowl, combine olive oil and garlic and smear over fish. Drizzle with honey.
- Lower heat to medium-high and add plank to grill over indirect heat (i.e. NOT directly above a flame) and close the lid. Cook for 12-18 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish, until fish flakes easily with a fork (it will continue to cook slightly on the plank after being removed).
- Check on the fish often to ensure there are no flare-ups. If the flames do get on the plank, spray with some water.
