Stovetop Smoker Salmon - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 -2 lb salmon fillet, skin on
olive oil
salmon seasoning (I use Chef Paul Prudhomme's Magic Salmon Seasoning)
1 1/2 tablespoons alder smoke chips

Preparation

FOLLOW MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR SMOKER or do the follwing:
Place the Alder chips in a small pile in the center of the smoker base.
Line the drip pan with heavy foil for easy clean-up & place pan on top of the wood chips.
Lightly spray the cooking rack with cooking spary & place in drip pan.
Rinse the salmon under cold water & pat dry dry with paper towel.
Brush olive oil on top of the salmon.
Sprinkle desired amount of seasoning on top.
Place salmon on cooking rack -- if more than one filet, be sure there's plenty of space between so the smoke can circulate.
Close the smoker lid tightly & place on preheated burner.
Cook on MEDIUM heat (or a little lower) for 25-30 minutes.
Remove from heat & carefully open the lid.
Check for doneness -- salmon should be opaque & flake easily when touched with a fork.
ENJOY!
