Cedar-Planked Citrus-Rosemary Salmon

Author: chef

This fascinating and smokey taste sensation comes from our friends at Better Health!

Ingredients

  • 1 (12-15 inch long) cedar plank, soaked in water for 2 hours
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 2 Tablespoons orange juice
  • 4 (6-8 oz each) skinless salmon fillets
  • 1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh rosemary
  • Garnish: 4 fresh orange slices

Heat charcoal or gas grill to medium-high heat. Remove plank from soaking. Place plank on grill. Cover and grill plank alone for 4-5 minutes until edges begin to smoke. Meanwhile, blend oil, garlic, and orange juice in food processor or blender. Brush on both sides of salmon fillets. Sprinkle both sides with lemon-pepper seasoning, pressing in slightly. Place fillets on preheated plank. Sprinkle rosemary on each. Cover grill and cook for 15-20 minutes until fillets are done. Garnish each fillet with an orange slice. Serve from plank.
