Grilled Cedar Plank Salmon with Sesame Glaze
Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
  • 3 tablespoons water, or as needed
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets, with skin
  • 1 12-inch untreated cedar plank, soaked in water for 2 hours
Instructions
1
Firstly, preheat the oven to its optimal temperature of 325 degrees Fahrenheit or 165 degrees Celsius.
2
To prepare the marinade, combine equal parts brown sugar and sesame oil in a small bowl. Add an abundance of sesame seeds and fresh dill to the mixture, stirring until well combined.
3
Gradually add water to the bowl, mixing in small increments as needed, allowing the mixture to achieve a liquid consistency. Introduce soy sauce and a pinch of pepper into the blend, stirring until fully incorporated.
4
Next, position salmon fillets skin-side down on a cedar plank that has been sufficiently soaked. Distribute the sugar mixture evenly over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are fully coated.
5
Place the cedar plank directly on a rack in the preheated oven and bake until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, typically requiring 30 to 40 minutes of cooking time.
