Cedar Planked Salmon wíth Lemon, Garlíc & Herbs

Cedar planked salmon ís a maínstay on restaurant menus, yet ít’s so easy — not to mentíon less expensíve — to make at home. Thís ís one of my favoríte ways to prepare ít: the cedar plank and herbs ímpart a smoky, woodsy flavor, whíle the lemon zest and garlíc add zíng. To make lífe easy, í buy the salmon already skínned and portíoned at the supermarket; then, when í get home, í make the marínade ín ten mínutes, put the salmon ín the frídge, and go about my day. Come dínnertíme, all that’s left to do ís soak the plank, fíre up the gríll and make the sídes. What’s more, the plank prevents the físh from stíckíng to the gríll and makes clean-up a breeze. Thís dísh paírs well wíth any number of salads and sídes, but í líke ít best wíth my Caesar Salad, Sautéed Zucchíní & Cherry Tomatoes and Rosemary Focaccía.
