Grilled Cedar Plank Salmon With Garlic Basil Butter image

This is by far my FAVORITE way of preparing salmon. I first tried it at McGraths Fish House, then duplicated it at home. You can normally find a cedar plank at your local grocery store in the seafood department.

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cedar plank
1 1/2-2 lbs salmon
1/4 cup fresh basil
1/2 cup butter, softened
6 -7 garlic cloves, minced
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Soak your cedar plank in water for 20 minutes, flipping over halfway through soak time.
  • While the plank is soaking, mix together butter, basil and minced garlic cloves, spread on salmon.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat your grill to low, or the right setting for your grill for fish.
  • Take your cedar plank out of the water and place the salmon on top of the plank. Place it on the grill and cook for 20-40 minutes depending on how thick your salmon is.Grill with the lid closed.
  • During the cooking time, if the plank catches on fire, spray it with water.
  • Salmon is done cooking, when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • *Note: Whenever I make this it normally takes around 30-45 minutes to cook on the grill. I constantly check it to make sure the plank doesn't burn & the salmon doesn't over cook.
  • Make sure you have water on hand to spray the cedar plank with, so it doesn't catch on fire.

GARLIC BASIL CHICKEN WITH TOMATO BUTTER SAUCE RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Garlic Basil Chicken with Tomato Butter Sauce Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by kimvess

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1 1 pound chicken breasts, boneless skinless
to & pepper, to taste
1/4 1/4 1/4 cup olive oil
6 6 6 Roma tomatoes, diced
3 3 3 cloves garlic, minced
1 1 1 handful fresh basil, loosely packed, cut into ribbons
1/4 1/4 1/4 cup LAND O LAKES® European Style Super Premium Salted Butter
8 8 8 ounces pasta, like spaghetti, linguine, or bucatini

Steps:

  • Cover the chicken with plastic wrap and pound each piece to an even thickness, about one inch or so in the thickest parts (this just helps it cook faster and more evenly). Remove the plastic and sprinkle each piece of chicken generously with sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Prep the tomatoes, garlic, and basil and set aside. Make the pasta according to package directions. Heat the olive oil in a large heavy skillet until a drop of water sizzles across the top. Add the chicken and pan-fry for several minutes on each side The goal here is to get the chicken cooked AND get a nice browning on the outside. When the chicken is done, set aside. Give the oil a few minutes to cool, add the tomatoes, and return to heat (if you add the tomatoes to the hot oil it will be a splatter-fest). Simmer to cook the tomatoes down into a chunky-sauce-like-mixture. Add the garlic and butter and stir to combine until the butter is melted. Add the chicken back in to soak in the sauce for a few minutes. Just before serving, stir in the basil. Top servings of pasta with the chicken and the sauce.
