Cedar Plank Salmon

Ingredients

• 1/3 cups olive oil
• 1 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• 1/4 cup green onions (chopped)
• 1 tbsp fresh ginger root (grated)
• 1 clove garlic (minced)
• 1 kg salmon (wild caught preferably)

Instructions

• Soak the cedar planks for a minimum of 1 hour prior to grilling
• In a shallow dish, prepare the marinade. Mix together the olive oil, rice vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, green onions, fresh ginger root, and fresh garlic.
• Place the salmon fillets in the marinade, cover and refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes.
• Preheat the grill at medium heat (approx. 350 degrees Celsius). Place the planks on the grill and allow them to heat to point of smoking slightly (without igniting!) Adjust the flame as needed to prevent burning. If you are having difficulty with this, try the cedar planks over indirect heat.
