Grilling over indirect heat allows the fish to stay moist and take on a subtle smokiness from the plank. Ingredients:
1 (15 x 6 1/2 x 3/8-inch) alder grilling plank |
1/2 cup rice vinegar |
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce |
2 tablespoons honey |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 lemon, thinly sliced |
1 (3 1/2-pound) salmon fillet |
1/4 cup chopped green onions |
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted |
Directions:
1. Soak the plank in water to cover 1 hour; drain.
2. To prepare grill for indirect grilling, heat one side of the grill to high heat (400 tp 500).
3. Combine vinegar and the next 6 ingredients (vinegar through lemon) in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal. Shake to combine. Add fish; seal. Marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes, turning once.
4. Place plank on grill grate over high heat; grill 5 minutes or until lightly charred. Carefully turn plank over; move to cool side of grill. Remove fish from marinade; discard marinade.
5. Place fish, skin side down, on charred side of plank. Grill salmon, covered with a grill lid, 15 minutes or until fish flakes with a fork. Sprinkle with green onions and sesame seeds.
