Cajun Flavored
Cedar Plank Salmon Recipe
3 Lb. Salmon Filet
1/4 cup Sesame oil, (or Olive oil)
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Cajun Type seasoning, (I use Emeral's Original)
Ground Pepper to taste, (preferably lots!)
Several sprigs of fresh Rosemary
1 Cedar plank sized to the fish
Spray or Brush a coat of oil on the flesh side of the fish, (skin side down).
Dust with the Garlic powder, Seasoning and Pepper.
Rub the seasoning into the Salmon and spray/brush again. Refrigerate for an
hour.
On a hot gas grill, (you may want to take the grill off, so you sit the plank
onto direct flame),
heat the plank for 5 minutes each side.
Spray/brush one side of plank with Oil, place fish skin side down on the oiled
side of the plank.
Set the plank on the fire, close grill and let cook, watching very closely.
Having the grill closed will control the fire somewhat, although opening the
grill will occur flame-ups,
control this with a spritzer bottle.
Having the plank burn some is desirable, but having it incinerate is not.
Cook to 140 degrees or less, for more rare.
