Maple Mustard Plank Salmon
- Reviews 1
Ready In: 40 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 (1 1/2lb) salmon fillets, with skin (I used skinless, cuz that's the way it came)
- lemon juice
- 1⁄2 cup pure maple syrup (mine was sugar free)
- 4 garlic cloves (I used 4 teaspoons from a jar)
- 2 tablespoons grated orange rind
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- salt and pepper
Directions
- Soak plank in water a minimum of 1 hour before using. (I put mine on a cookie sheet, filled it with water and placed a glass full of water on top of it to weigh it down and let it soak all day.
- Cut salmon with 1/2 inch slits lengthwise almost down to the skin, and 1/2 inch apart.
- Sprinkle lemon juice liberally over salmon and massage into every nook and cranny.
- Preheat grill to high heat (about 500-600 degrees). I set it on high.
- Season the salmon with salt and pepper. (I used lemon pepper).
- When the grill is hot, place the salmon, skin side down on the pre-soaked plank over indirect heat. (Turn one of the burners off, leave the other lit, place over unlit side).
- Close lid and cook for 15-18 minutes.
- Brush salmon with the sauce made from the Maple Syrup, Garlic, Orange Rind and Dijon Mustard.
- Cook for an additional 10-12 minutes or until done.
- It's done when fish flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove from heat and serve.
