Cooking fish on wooden planks is a native tradition. Use untreated cedar that you can buy at the local lumberyard or hardware store. You can usually use them a few times if they are not too badly charred.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 24 tacos, 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

3 to 4 cups golden brown sugar
1/4 cup good quality dark roast coffee, coarsely ground
1/2 cup seafood seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
1/4 cup ground turmeric
1/4 cup curry powder
1/4 cup ground cumin
1/4 cup coarsely ground black pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 bunch of fresh cilantro leaves; chopped (yields approximately 1 cup)
1 bunch fresh flat leaf parsley; chopped (yields approximately 1 cup)
1 bunch fresh green onion; chopped (yields approximately 1 cup)
2 fresh pasilla chiles fire roasted, stemmed, seeded and chopped
2 fresh Anaheim chiles fire roasted, skinned and chopped
1/2 head fresh red cabbage, chiffonade
1/2 head fresh green cabbage chiffonade
2 serrano chiles, finely diced
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lime juice, about 1 1/2 tablespoons, optional
6 pounds wild salmon fillet, boneless and skinless
3 cedar grilling planks (soaked for 3 hours)
4 dozen fresh corn tortillas (preferably homemade)
1 pound Cotija cheese crumbled for topping tacos

Steps:

  • Thoroughly mix all of the rub ingredients in a glass bowl and set aside. Cooks Note: Can be sealed in storage bag or jar for up to 1 week. This will make about 6 cups.
  • Combine all of the ensalada ingredients in a glass bowl and mix well. Set aside for tacos.
  • Cut the salmon fillet into 3 equal parts and arrange on the pre-soaked cedar planks. Cover the salmon liberally with the spice rub (approximately 1 cup per pound). It is ok if some spice rub falls onto the plank.
  • Heat the grill to high.
  • Put the salmon planks over very hot mesquite/oak or hickory coals and cover the grill until the spice rub has melted to form a coating over salmon and plank, about 7 to 10 minutes. Remove the cover from the grill. If the planks flame up be sure the flames do not scorch the fillet, as the taste of burned sugar should not be the dominating flavor.
  • Remove the salmon planks from the grill and loosely cover with foil. Allow the fillets to rest for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add the fillets to a large bowl and set aside. In the meantime, toast the corn tortillas over the hot coals or on a preheated comal.
  • Add the ensalada to the bowl with the salmon and stir lightly to combine.
  • Using 2 overlapping toasted corn tortillas, scoop some of the salmon mixture onto the tortillas and top with some of the cheese. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling. For authentic Baja style service, use simple paper boats for serving vessels. The boats will allow the tacos to stand upright for better presentation.

This is a dish my brother prepared for me in Seattle. It is by far the best salmon I've ever eaten. I like to serve it with an Asian-inspired rice and roasted asparagus.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Salmon: Opt for fresh, wild-caught salmon if possible, as it tends to have a better flavor and texture than farmed salmon.
  • Prepare the Cedar Plank: Soak the cedar plank in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent it from burning.
  • Create a Flavorful Spice Rub: Combine spices like paprika, cumin, garlic powder, and brown sugar to create a flavorful rub for the salmon.
  • Don't Overcook the Salmon: Salmon cooks quickly, so it's important not to overcook it. Aim for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  • Let the Salmon Rest: Once cooked, let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful fish.

Conclusion:

Cedar-planked salmon with a spice rub is an incredibly delicious and healthy dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. With its smoky flavor and succulent texture, this recipe is sure to impress your friends and family. The combination of the spice rub and the cedar plank imparts a unique and unforgettable taste that will leave you wanting more.
