Cedar Plank Dijon Salmon
Bursting with flavor, this moist and delicious Cedar Plank Dijon Salmon made with wild caught fresh salmon might be the best thing you cook on the grill.
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 pounds wild salmon fillets I used two 1-pound filets
- 2 cedar planks soaked in water for at least 20 minutes
Marinade:
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon whole mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
Instructions
- Preheat grill to high heat for 15 minutes and then adjust to medium low (if using charcoal grill, simply move the coals to one side after heating.) I used my Traeger and after it hit high heat, I reduced the temperature down to 250°F.
- Place rinsed and patted dry 2 pounds wild salmon fillets skin-side-down on cedar plank.
- Whisk together mustard marinade ingredients (1/2 cup Dijon mustard, 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon whole mustard seeds, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice) and spread on top of salmon. Place the 2 cedar planks on cool side of grill if using coals, cover the grill and cook for 30 minutes or until salmon is cooked through to 140°F.
