Flaky, smoky wild-caught salmon fillets grilled directly on toasted cedar planks. Beautifully basted with a sweet maple syrup and tangy stoneground Dijon glaze.

Ingredients

  • Atlantic Salmon Fillets4 pcs
  • Cedar Wood Baking Planks2 pcs
  • Pure Maple Syrup4 tbsp
  • Stoneground Dijon Mustard2 tbsp
  • Soy Sauce1 tbsp
  • Smoked Paprika & Garlic Powder1 tsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Soak cedar wood planks in warm water (or apple cider/beer) for at least 1-2 hours to prevent them from catching fire on the grill.

  2. 2

    Preheat your grill to medium direct heat (around 350°F / 177°C).

  3. 3

    Whisk together the glaze: maple syrup, stoneground dijon, soy sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and a dash of ground black pepper.

  4. 4

    Pat the salmon dry and place the fillets skin-side down on the wet cedar planks.

  5. 5

    Spoon about half of the maple-mustard glaze over the top of the salmon.

  6. 6

    Place the planks directly on the grill grates over the heat. Cover the grill lid.

  7. 7

    Grill for 15-20 minutes, basting with remaining glaze halfway through. The cedar planks will smoke and toast, steaming the fish with cedar oil.

  8. 8

    The salmon is ready when it is opaque throughout and flakes easily with a fork.
