Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

For salmon:
4 (10 inch) cedar planks
Hoisin Glaze
4 6oz True North Salmon fillets, skin on
For Glaze:
Makes about 1/2 cup
4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
Juice and zest of 1 lime
2 teaspoon honey
2 small garlic clove, minced or put through a press
2 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
Coarse salt

Steps:

Stir the hoisin, lime juice, lime zest, honey, garlic, and cilantro together in a small bowl. Soak the cedar plank in water for at least 2 hours and up to 12. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. In a small bowl, stir together the ingredients to make the hoisin glaze. Lightly season the salmon with salt. Spoon the glaze over the salmon so it is fully coated. Heat the soaked cedar plank in the oven for 15 minutes to bring out the aroma of the wood. Place the salmon on the plank, skin side down. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the oven, until the fillet can be barely flaked with a fork.
