Cedar Planked Salmon
Serves 4
1 1/2–2 lbs. king or sockeye salmon fillet
untreated cedar plank (wide as the width of the salmon fillet), available at Monahan’s
Irish Whiskey Maple Glaze, make your own or buy it from us
Soak plank by submerging in water for 2 hours. Preheat grill. Place salmon on the wet plank and baste with glaze, then put plank on the grill. Cover with vented lid and baste occasionally for about 12-15 minutes until salmon is opaque in the center. No need to flip the fish.
Serve salmon on the plank at the table.
Kindly recommend a sauce to be used alongside this delicious meal.
Brush the maple whiskey glaze on the salmon at the end, that’s all you’ll need
I have eaten Monaghan’s cedar planked salmon with the maple whiskey sauce for years and I think it is the best way to eat salmon I’ve ever had. Worth walking on hot coals to get!
Thanks Carole! We appreciate your support and agree about the coals 🙂
