Cedar Plank Salmon With Hollandaise Dill Sauce image

I love salmon and have always grilled it and served it with hollandaise sauce. Now since the cedar plank is so popular of course I had to try it. I'm very happy with the result.

Time 5h12m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 salmon fillets, skinless
2 cedar planks (use food grade only)
sea salt
1 large lemon

Steps:

  • Soak cedar planks in water for 4 to 6 hours. (This is essential to make sure planks do not catch fire, so don't skimp on this step)
  • Preheat grill to high.
  • Season the soaked planks with salt and pepper and place on the grill for 3 to 5 minutes with lid closed. They will begin to crackle and smoke.
  • Place salmon fillets carefully on cooking planks, skin side of the fish on the plank. Close the lid and bake the fillets for 12-15 minutes. Check periodically to make sure cooking planks have not caught fire.
  • Have a spray bottle of water on hand to spritz planks in case they do, but it is much less likely to happen if they have been well soaked beforehand.
  • Remove cooking planks from grill and squeeze lemon juice over salmon fillets and top off with your favorite Hollandaise recipe or mix (I use Knorr and add dill weed).
