👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Soak the cedar plank in water for at least 1-2 hours; this prevents it from catching fire and allows it to infuse smoky moisture into the salmon.
2. Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels, then rub generously with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.
3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F or 190-200°C) or preheat your oven to the same temperature if baking.
4. Place the salmon, skin-side down (if applicable), directly on the soaked cedar plank.
5. Grill or bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) and the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
6. Remove the plank with salmon from the grill/oven and let it rest for a few minutes before garnishing with fresh dill and lemon slices.
