Best Planked Salmon With Basil Chive Butter Recipes
GRILLED CEDAR PLANK SALMON WITH GARLIC BASIL BUTTER
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.

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.

PLANKED SALMON WITH HONEY BALSAMIC GLAZE
This is my favorite grilled salmon. It is grilled on a cedar plank (make sure you soak the plank for at least 8 hours). The ingredients are the perfect blend. The original recipe has it baked in an oven at 400 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. We cook it at the same temp and time on the grill. You could use 4 - 6 ounce portion fillets (skin on) on 2 cedar planks. We prefer half a side of salmon with the skin on. The recipe is by Michael Chiarello. I like to serve this with wild rice and a tossed green salad.

Steps:
- Presoak cedar plank for 8 hours.
- Preheat grill to 400 degrees.
- Cut a few slits in the side of the salmon, but don't go all the way through, halfway. Do the same if using portions. The slits allow the glaze to absorb into the fillet.
- In a bowl mix salt, pepper and dry mustard.
- In a glass bowl, microwave the honey for about 30 seconds to liquefy. Remove bowl and blend in balsamic vinegar.
- With a basting brush, baste the salmon with butter. Apply dry seasoning mix (salt, pepper and dry mustard) on flesh side of salmon and lightly rub it into the salmon(don't tear flesh). I just pat the dry seasoning on.
- With the basting brush baste the salmon with the honey balsamic mixture. Reserve liquid for later.
- Heat the planks on the grill over medium heat for 3-5 minutes to brown them. Watch so they don't catch on fire. Remove from grill and rub olive oil on the browned side of plank. Lay salmon on the oiled side of the plank with skin side down and baste with remaining reserved liquid.
- Cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until done. A thicker cut may take a little longer. If cooking in an oven use a cookie sheet to prevent a mess.
- Note: prep time doesn't include cedar plank soak time of 8 hours.
