Salmon Baked On Cedar With Lobster Sauce Recipes

SALMON BAKED ON CEDAR WITH LOBSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Place 2 pieces of salmon on each cedar plank; season to taste with salt& pepper.
• Bake in preheated 400F oven for 15 minutes.
• Heat oil in a small pan& saute onion; add remaining ingredients.
• Cook over medium heat until cream is reduced by half.
• Remove from heat, season to taste& serve over salmon fillets.

CEDAR PLANK OVEN SALMON

Steps:

• Soak the cedar plank in water for 1 hour. When it's almost done soaking, begin preheating the oven to 350 F.
• While the oven is preheating, make a brine for the salmon by combining 2 cups of water with 2 tablespoons of salt. Soak the salmon in the brine for 10 minutes while the oven preheats.
• Remove the cedar plank from the water and shake off excess water. Remove the salmon from the brine and gently pat to remove excess brine. Rub the salmon with the desired amount of salmon rub.
• Place a flat rack on a baking sheet (you can line the baking sheet with foil first, for easy cleanup, if desired). Place the soaked plank on the rack. Put the baking sheet with the rack and plank on it in the oven for 5 minutes to heat up.
• Remove the baking sheet with the rack and plank on it. Place the rubbed salmon on the hot plank; if the end of a salmon filet is thinner than the center, you can gently fold the thin end under so that the salmon cooks more evenly. Return the baking sheet to the oven. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until desired doneness is reached. (Salmon is fully cooked when it flakes easily with a fork.)
• Optional: glaze salmon fillets with melted butter and sprinkle on chopped fresh dill just before serving.

CANADIAN CEDAR PLANKED SALMON

Steps:

• Submerge untreated cedar plank in water. Soak approximately 12 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Place prepared plank on the grill, and sprinkle with coarse salt. Cover grill and heat plank 2 to 3 minutes, until dry. Adjust grill temperature for medium heat.
• Rub salmon filets with olive oil. Arrange on the plank. Top salmon with red onion, lemon slices and black peppercorns.
• Cook salmon, covered, 10 to 12 minutes, or until opaque and easily flaked with a fork.

SALMON BAKED ON A CEDAR PLANK WITH HOISIN GLAZE

Steps:

• Stir the hoisin, lime juice, lime zest, honey, garlic and cilantro together in a small bowl.
• Soak the cedar plank in water for at least 2 hours and up to 12.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, stir together the ingredients to make the hoisin glaze. Lightly season the salmon with salt. Spoon the glaze over the salmon so it is fully coated.
• Heat the soaked cedar plank in the oven for 15 minutes to bring out the aroma of the wood.
• Place the salmon on the plank, skin side down.
• Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the oven, until the fillet can be barely flaked with a fork.

SALMON STUFFED WITH CRAB AND LOBSTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a baking dish with cooking spray. Slice one lemon and juice the second lemon; set aside.
• Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; saute until golden brown 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Chop crab and lobster in a food processor. Transfer into a bowl and mix in onion mixture, goat cheese, and lemon juice.
• Cut each salmon piece in half. Fold crab and lobster stuffing into each piece and tie closed with kitchen string. Place in the prepared baking dish. Place lemon slices on top of salmon and cover with barbecue sauce.
• Cover the baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 15 more minutes.
