Grilled Cedar Plank Salmon With Garlic Basil Butter image

This is by far my FAVORITE way of preparing salmon. I first tried it at McGraths Fish House, then duplicated it at home. You can normally find a cedar plank at your local grocery store in the seafood department.

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cedar plank
1 1/2-2 lbs salmon
1/4 cup fresh basil
1/2 cup butter, softened
6 -7 garlic cloves, minced
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Soak your cedar plank in water for 20 minutes, flipping over halfway through soak time.
  • While the plank is soaking, mix together butter, basil and minced garlic cloves, spread on salmon.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat your grill to low, or the right setting for your grill for fish.
  • Take your cedar plank out of the water and place the salmon on top of the plank. Place it on the grill and cook for 20-40 minutes depending on how thick your salmon is.Grill with the lid closed.
  • During the cooking time, if the plank catches on fire, spray it with water.
  • Salmon is done cooking, when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • *Note: Whenever I make this it normally takes around 30-45 minutes to cook on the grill. I constantly check it to make sure the plank doesn't burn & the salmon doesn't over cook.
  • Make sure you have water on hand to spray the cedar plank with, so it doesn't catch on fire.

This recipe was a disaster! The salmon was raw in the middle and the garlic basil butter burned.

The salmon was a bit dry. I think I overcooked it.

I found the garlic basil butter to be a bit overpowering. Next time, I'll use less of it.
