📝 Instructions

9 steps
1

Soak the cedar plank in water for at least 2 hours. This prevents the wood from burning during cooking.

2

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F (190°C).

3

Rinse the fresh salmon fillet and pat dry with paper towels. Brush the salmon generously with olive oil and season with kosher salt, black pepper, and paprika.

4

In a medium saucepan, combine fresh cranberries, granulated sugar, orange juice, orange zest, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground cloves. Stir well to combine.

5

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the cranberry mixture for 10-12 minutes, or until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

6

Place the soaked cedar plank directly on the grill grates for about 3 minutes. Turn it over and then place the seasoned salmon fillet on top of the plank, skin-side down.

7

Cover the grill and cook the salmon for 18-22 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Check periodically to ensure the plank is smoldering but not catching fire.

8

Remove the salmon and cedar plank carefully from the grill. Let the salmon rest on the plank for 5 minutes.

9

Serve the cedar-planked salmon with a generous spoonful of spiced cranberry relish on top. Garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary and lemon wedges on the side.
