Cedar Plank Salmon with Watermelon Feta Salsa.
If there was ever a way to cook salmon, it's on a cedar plank.

Ingredients
4 servings
Instructions
- Soak the cedar plank in orange juice (or water) for at least 30 minutes before grilling, but 2-4 hours is ideal.
- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, dried thyme, salt and pepper.
- Heat your gas or charcoal grill to medium heat, about 350 degrees F.
- Lay the whole salmon fillet on top of the cedar plank, making sure none of the salmon is hanging off. Sprinkle with the salmon with the seasonings and then rub the entire fillet with olive oil. Place the cedar plank on the grill and cover the grill. Grill for about 12-15 minutes and check for doneness. The salmon is done when it's uniformly pink in the center. Using a large spatula, remove the cedar plank + salmon and transfer to a flat surface to rest. Serve the salmon with the watermelon salsa. Enjoy!
- Combine all of the ingredients, except the feta, in a bowl and gently toss to combine. Now add the feta and toss once more. Serve over the salmon. Salsa will keep for 1 day in the fridge, but is best served soon after making.
