Planked Salmon with Cucmber Sauce

Cedar planks are very easy to come by and add a wonderful flavor to the fish. Be sure to soak your plank for at least an hour in water. I usually serve this with a side of rice pilaf. No picture yet, this disappeared before I could get a shot.

Update: Here's at least a hot off the grill shot.




For the Salmon

Salmon fillets
salt and pepper

For the Cucmber Sauce

1 large English cucmber, sliced
1 stalk celery, sliced thin
1/3c Greek style yoghurt
1 small shallot minced
1T chppoed fresh parsley
2T white wine vinegar or lemon
salt and pepper

Instructions

Wash salmon and pat dry. Place skin side down (if has skin on) on pre-soaked plank. Salt an pepper fish. Grill with lid closed for 12-15 minutes or until done and tops golden brown. Check halfway through to ensure no flareups.

Make the cucumber sauce

Stir together yoghurt, vinegar, shallot, salt and pepper, parsley. Add cucumber and celery and toss to coat.
