Cedar Plank Roasted Salmon

Submitted by Kelly Wing, Sous Chef with the Shaarey Zedek Synagogue Catering Department

If you're looking for a different way to prepare and serve salmon, try this method. The salmon
will be infused with the savoury aroma of the cedar planks, which can also be used as serving

pieces for a unique presentation.

Ingredients

1 large or 4 small	Cedar Planks (can be found at Safeway)
4 – 170 gm (6 oz) pieces	Fresh Salmon
125 ml (1/2 cup)	Sweet Chili
5 ml (1 tsp)	Seasoning Salt

Method

Soak cedar plank or planks overnight in water or for at least 12 hours. Remove and preheat oven to 170º C (325º F). Generously rub each piece of fish with sweet chili sauce and place on plank. Season with the seasoning salt and set the plank on a tray appropriate for catching any dripping that may occur. Place in oven on the middle rack and cook until fish is fully cooked, approximately 20 minutes. Remove from plank and serve or for presentation serve directly on the plank.
