MAPLE MUSTARD PLANK SALMON

Steps:

• Soak plank in water a minimum of 1 hour before using. (I put mine on a cookie sheet, filled it with water and placed a glass full of water on top of it to weigh it down and let it soak all day.
• Cut salmon with 1/2 inch slits lengthwise almost down to the skin, and 1/2 inch apart.
• Sprinkle lemon juice liberally over salmon and massage into every nook and cranny.
• Preheat grill to high heat (about 500-600 degrees). I set it on high.
• Season the salmon with salt and pepper. (I used lemon pepper).
• When the grill is hot, place the salmon, skin side down on the pre-soaked plank over indirect heat. (Turn one of the burners off, leave the other lit, place over unlit side).
• Close lid and cook for 15-18 minutes.
• Brush salmon with the sauce made from the Maple Syrup, Garlic, Orange Rind and Dijon Mustard.
• Cook for an additional 10-12 minutes or until done.
• It's done when fish flakes easily with a fork.
• Remove from heat and serve.
