Cedar Plank Salmon With Ginger Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

16 ounces salmon fillets
3 tablespoons dry sherry
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely minced
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 tablespoon fresh ground pepper
lemon slice

Preparation

In a shallow glass dish, combine the sherry, soy sauce, sesame oil, butter and ginger.
Place the fish in the marinade for 30 minutes.
Soak the cedar plank in water for 20-45 minutes
Preheat the grill at a medium-low setting (300 degrees).
After removing the plank from the liquid, pat dry and coat with olive oil on both sides.
Place the plank on the grill with the salmon and shut the lid.
Leave for 15-20 mins (note: when using whole salmon, the cooking time will increase to approximately 45-50 mins).
Check salmon on the thickest part of the fillet to ensure even cooking. The salmon should have an opaque colour and be flaky to the touch with a fork.
Once done, serve with lemon or lime for squeezing over the fish.
