Method

Prepare the Cedar Plank Salmon

  1. 1

    Soak the Cedar Plank

    Soak the cedar plank in water for at least 2 hours before grilling to prevent it from catching fire.

  2. 2

    Make the Cider Reduction

    In a small saucepan, combine the cider and honey. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer until the mixture reduces by half, about 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Salmon

    Preheat the grill to medium heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Place the salmon on the soaked cedar plank and brush with the cider reduction.

Roast the Vegetables

  1. 4

    Prepare Winter Root Vegetables

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a bowl, combine the diced carrots, parsnips, and turnips with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.

  2. 5

    Roast the Vegetables

    Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and caramelized, stirring halfway through.

Roast the Fingerling Potatoes

  1. 6

    Prepare the Potatoes

    In a bowl, toss the halved fingerling potatoes with olive oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper.

  2. 7

    Roast the Potatoes

    Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

Grill the Salmon

  1. 8

    Cook the Salmon

    Place the cedar plank with the salmon on the grill. Close the lid and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
