1 lb. Salmon Fillets
1 Bunch of Dill
1 Lemon
Seasoning of Choice
1 12" Cedar Plank

{Optional Butter Sauce}
1/2 Cup Butter
1 Tablespoon Capers, chopped
1 Shallot, chopped
1 Clove Garlic, chopped
4 Spring Dill, chopped
1 Tablespoon lemon juice

Prep Cedar Plank
You can purchase a cedar plank at any kitchen supply store for around $12 but I picked up a 5' untreated cedar fence plank at Home Depot. Wash plank and soak in water for 3-4 hours. Plank will float so weigh it down with a heavy pot.

As fish has such a small amount of connective tissue, it requires very little cooking. If it is overcooked, the flakes fall apart and the fibers become tough, dry and tasteless. There are several ways of cooking fish, but the cooking process should, in general, be short and gentle. Although fillets are more popular, most cooks agree that fish on the bone - as with meat - has more flavor.

Grilling is a delicious and easy way to quickly cook fish without adding more than a tiny bit of extra fat! In France, this is often greatly improved by adding herbs to the side of fish that is being grilled while you are cooking the fish. In other words, you actually grill the herbs along with the fish.
