Planked Salmon on Cedar

Serves One

1 - 8oz Salmon filet

1 tsp olive oil

1/4 clove garlic, chopped

1/4 tsp orange zest

Pinch of ground rosemary

Ground pepper to taste

1 tsp soy sauce

1 tsp teriyaki sauce

1 cedar board approximately 8 x 24 inches and about 3/8 of an inch thick.

On a separate plate, rub the olive oil into the top flesh of the salmon.

Evenly spread the garlic and orange zest.

Season with rosemary and pepper.

Drizzle the soy and teriyaki over the top of the filet.

Soak your cedar board for twenty minutes in water or beer.

Place the seasoned salmon filets on the board.

Place the board on top of a medium heat BBQ grill or you may place the board on a metal sheet pan and place in a 400 degree oven.

Cook for approximately ten minutes, then serve.

Any of your favorite sauces will go well with this recipe. For this particular photo, I made a teriyaki dipping sauce, flavored with orange juice, chopped garlic and ginger. I finished by whisking in a teaspoon of sesame oil. A Hollandaise sauce seasoned with flavoring from your marinade will also work well. Ground pepper to taste.
