1 pound salmon fillet, all bones removed

Steps:

This can be easily be done outside on a charcoal grill if it has a cover that can be pulled down.

SMOKED SALMON FINGERS

I saw an episode of The Barefoot Contessa the other day and had to try this appetizer. She made hers as sandwiches, but I thought it was kind of neat to display the Salmon since it's so expensive. I scaled down the serving size as well. The recipe came from her Book Party show. I wasn't able to get the entire ingredient list as the site didn't have it posted. I believe it's close however.
