Dill Sauce Smothered Cedar Planked Salmon: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 2 minute

Ingredients

– 2 cedar planks (about 12 x 6 inches)
– 2 salmon fillets (6-8 ounces each, skin on)
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 3 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
– 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
– 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
– Lemon wedges, for serving


Instructions

Creating Dill Sauce Smothered Cedar Planked Salmon is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Soak the Cedar Planks: Start by soaking the cedar planks in water for at least 1 hour in order to prevent them from catching fire on the grill.
2. Prepare the Marinade (optional): In a bowl, combine olive oil, salt, and pepper. Brush this mixture over the salmon fillets.
3. Mix the Dill Sauce: In another bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and chopped dill until well combined. Set aside.
4. Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. After soaking, place the cedar planks on the grill and let them heat up until they begin to smoke.
5. Place Salmon on Planks: Once the cedar planks are hot, carefully place the salmon fillets on top, skin-side down.
6. Cook the Salmon: Close the grill lid and cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
7. Add Dill Sauce: During the last few minutes of grilling, generously smother the dill sauce over the salmon fillets.
8. Remove from Grill: Carefully transfer the cedar planks with salmon to a heat-resistant surface.
9. Garnish and Serve: Add lemon wedges for an extra burst of freshness before serving.
