Dressing Ingredients

Method

Preparing the Salmon

  1. 1

    Soak Cedar Plank

    Soak the cedar plank in water for at least 1 hour to prevent it from burning while grilling.

  2. 2

    Prepare Salmon

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Grill Salmon

    Place the soaked cedar plank on the grill for about 3-5 minutes until it starts to smoke. Lay the salmon fillets skin-side down on the plank and close the grill lid. Grill for approximately 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  4. 4

    Remove Salmon

    Carefully remove the cedar plank from the grill using tongs and let the salmon rest for a few minutes before flaking it into bite-sized pieces.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 5

    Prepare Vegetables

    While the salmon is grilling, wash and dry the arugula. Slice the cucumber into thin rounds, halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion.

  2. 6

    Mix Salad Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the arugula, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion. Gently toss together.

  3. 7

    Make Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  4. 8

    Dress the Salad

    Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.

Preparing Croissants

  1. 9

    Slice Croissants

    Cut the croissants in half lengthwise to create a sandwich base.

Serving the Dish

  1. 10

    Assemble the Salad Croissant

    Place a generous amount of the salad mixture on the bottom half of each croissant. Top with the grilled cedar plank salmon pieces and close with the top half of the croissant.

  2. 11

    Serve

    Serve immediately while the salmon is warm, and enjoy your cedar chicken salad croissant!
