Categories     main-dish

Time 2h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cedar plank (6 by 14 inches)
2 salmon fillets (1 1/2 pounds total)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 tablespoons Dijon mustard
6 tablespoons brown sugar

Steps:

  • Soak cedar plank in salted water for 2 hours, then drain. Remove skin from salmon fillet. Remove any remaining bones. Rinse the salmon under cold running water and pat dry with paper towels. Generously season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Lay the salmon (on what was skin-side down) on the cedar plank and carefully spread the mustard over the top and sides. Place the brown sugar in a bowl and crumble between your fingers, then sprinkle over the mustard.
  • Set grill for indirect grilling and heat to medium-high. Place the cedar plank in the center of the hot grate, away from the heat. Cover the grill and cook until cooked through, around 20 to 30 minutes. The internal temperature should read 135 degrees F. Transfer the salmon and plank to a platter and serve right off the plank.
  • Cook's Note: A direct method to grill the salmon may be used. Soak the cedar plank well. Spread the mustard and brown sugar on the salmon, but do not place the fish on the plank. Set up the grill for direct grilling on medium-high. When ready to cook, place the plank on the hot grate and leave it until there is a smell of smoke, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the plank over and place the fish on top. Cover the grill and cook until the fish is cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 135 degrees F. Check the plank occasionally. If the edges start to catch fire, mist with water, or move the plank to a cooler part of the grill.

GRILLED CEDAR PLANK SALMON

Using a cedar plank to grill salmon is an effortless way to add enormous flavor to your dish. The fish takes on a lovely smokiness, stays wonderfully moist and the skin doesn't stick to the grates. We spiced ours up with a maple-ginger marinade and whipped up a quick side salad for a tasty, incredibly easy weeknight meal.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons grated ginger (from a 2-inch knob)
3 cloves garlic, grated
1/2 cup olive oil
Four 6-ounce salmon fillets, skin on (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 10-ounce bag coleslaw mix
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup sesame sticks or wonton chips

Steps:

  • Soak a cedar grill plank in water for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours. Preheat the grill to medium.
  • Mix the rice wine vinegar, maple syrup, soy sauce, ginger and garlic in a medium bowl. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking constantly, until emulsified. Reserve 1/4 cup for the salad dressing and set aside. Pour the remaining mixture over the salmon and let marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the soaked cedar plank in the center of the preheated grill. Close the lid and let the plank heat until you hear it start to crack, about 15 minutes. Place the salmon fillets, skin-side down, on the plank. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Close the lid and cook until the salmon is opaque throughout and large flakes break off when flecked with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the plank from the grill and serve the salmon from the plank (the fish will slide right off with a metal spatula, leaving the skin behind). Discard the plank.
  • While the salmon is cooking, add the coleslaw mix, almonds, sesame sticks or wonton chips and the reserved dressing to a large bowl and toss until well combined. Serve alongside the salmon.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 2-to-3-pound skin-on center-cut salmon fillet (about 1 1/2 inches thick)
2 teaspoons ground coriander
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 2-inch piece ginger, peeled and grated
Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Soak 1 large cedar grilling plank (15 by 6 inches) in a baking dish of water, about 2 hours; put a plate or mug on top to keep the plank submerged.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Sprinkle the salmon with the coriander, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Let stand at room temperature about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the maple syrup, ginger, lemon zest and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until slightly thickened, about 7 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and set aside.
  • Remove the cedar plank from the water and pat dry. Place the plank directly on the oven rack and preheat about 15 minutes. Using tongs or oven mitts, remove the hot plank from the oven and place the fish, skin-side down, on the wood. Brush the fish with half of the ginger glaze. Transfer the fish on the plank to the oven; put a baking sheet on the rack below to catch any drips. Cook until the salmon is just firm and slightly golden on top, about 12 minutes.
  • Remove the fish from the oven and change the oven setting to broil. Brush the remaining ginger glaze over the salmon and broil until golden, 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest 5 minutes on the plank before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Look for a salmon fillet that is thick and firm, with a deep orange color. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a lot of white streaks, as these will be less flavorful and more prone to overcooking.
  • Use a good quality miso paste: The miso paste is the key ingredient in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a miso paste that is made with whole soybeans and has a rich, savory flavor.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it carefully. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough, so err on the side of undercooking it slightly.
  • Use a cedar plank: Cedar planks are a great way to cook salmon. They impart a wonderful smoky flavor to the fish, and they also help to keep it moist.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: This miso-glazed cedar plank salmon can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Miso-glazed cedar plank salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The miso glaze gives the salmon a wonderfully savory flavor, and the cedar plank imparts a lovely smoky aroma. This dish is sure to impress your friends and family, and it's a great way to enjoy the health benefits of salmon.
