INGREDIENTS

  • 1 (12 inch) cedar plank
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets, with skin
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional)
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges (optional)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Soak the cedar plank in water for at least 2 hours and up to 12.
  2. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  3. Place the salmon on the plank, skin side down. In a small bowl, stir together the sesame oil, brown sugar, dill weed and sesame seeds. Stir in just enough water to make it liquid. Season with pepper and soy sauce if desired. Spoon the mixture over the salmon so it is fully coated.
  4. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until the fillet can be flaked with a fork.

On the Grill

Preheat a grill to medium heat. Place plank with fish on the grate and cover. Grill for about 25 minutes, or until fish can be flaked with a fork.

Awesome! I opted to include all of the option ingredients. I should have added the soy sauce at the very end, my sauce got a bit runny. I didn't even need to add water after adding some lemon juice and the soy sauce. Delicious sauce and perfect moist, flakey salmon. It's a cooold February here in Wisconsin so no grilling - worked great in the oven. Looking forward to trying it on the grill!

I've made this recipe several times now... mostly at the request of my wife. When I say 'several times', I mean about twice a week for a month. This was my first cedar plank recipe and I was very pleased with the results. What an incredible flavor! Thank you.
