Ingredients
1 cedar plank, long enough to fit salmon but short enough to fit inside your grill
2 pounds salmon fillet, skin on, no more than ¾” thick
olive oil
flakey sea salt
black pepper
Directions
-
Soak the plank in water, up to 2 hours. Meanwhile, coat the salmon meat with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Allow the salmon to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling.
-
Prepare your grill by bringing it up to medium-high temperature. Transfer salmon to plank, skin side down, in the center of your grill. Cover and cook for 8-10 minutes.
-
Turn off or decrease the heat as much as possible and allow the salmon to remain on the covered grill an additional 6-8 minutes, or until reaching your desired doneness. Carefully remove plank from the grill and serve.
