Cedar-Planked Salmon Recipe

4
75 mins

Ingredients

4 untreated cedar shingles; 5 1/2 inches x 10 inches
2 tsp vegetable oil
4 8-oz salmon fillets
2 tsp Essence

Preparation

Step 1

Prepare a grill and light the fire. Rub 1 side of each shingle with 1/2 teaspoon of oil.

Season the fish on both sides with Essence (see separate recipe). Place a fillet on each oiled shingle. Place the shingles in the center of a hot barbecue grill. Close the lid and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove the shingles from the grill using a long-handled spatula. If the shingles catch fire, sprinkle with a little water.

Put the shingles in the center of large plates. Spoon the Garlic Spinach (see separate recipe) on the side, and drizzle the fish with some Merlot Wine Reduction Sauce (see separate recipe).
