Cedar Plank Grilled Salmon

Ingredients

• 1 cedar plank
• 1 lb salmon fillet - skin on
• Olive oil
• 1 lemon
• 1 large shallot
• Tomatoes (amount varies based on size of tomato)
• Chopped fresh parsley, or basil if you prefer
• Salt and pepper

Directions

1. Soak the plank for an hour or two in water.
2. Heat the grill on high heat.
3. Lay your salmon filet on the plank, and coat with a small amount of olive oil, then squeeze juice from half the lemon on top, and sprinkle salt and pepper and chopped fresh parsley.
4. Cover the fish first with thin slices of shallot, then thin slices of tomato. The whole fish should be covered.
5. Cut the other half of the lemon in quarters and put them on the plank. Sprinkle another pinch of salt and grind a bit more pepper over everything.
6. Put the fish on the grill and let it cook through, keeping an eye on the plank so it doesn’t catch fire. If it starts to, spritz the flame without knocking the fish off the plank.
7. Use a flat fish spatula to shimmy the fish off the plank and onto a serving plate. Squeeze the juice of those smoked lemons over the fish and enjoy!
