CEDAR PLANK GRILLED SALMON
This Cedar Plank Grilled Salmon is marinated in a soy sauce, garlic, brown sugar marinade. Super simple and adds so much flavor, and you get a fantastic smokiness from the smoldering wood.

- 1 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar

Instructions

- In a small bowl combine soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes, whisk until sugar is dissolved. Pour 1/2 of the marinade over fish until well coated. Marinade in refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
- Heat a small saucepan on medium low heat and add the remaining marinade mixture. Whisk in the cornstarch until dissolved. Simmer sauce for 3-5 minutes or just until thickened.
- Heat charcoal or gas grill on medium heat, Place soaked cedar plank on top of flames. Heat plank for 1-2 minutes then flip and heat another 1-2 minutes. Place salmon skin side down on cedar plank.
