Grilled Cedar-Plank Salmon

Ingredients

• 4 6-ounce pieces salmon fillet
• Kosher salt and pepper
• 1 seedless cucumber, sliced into thin half-moons
• 1 jalapeño, seeded and sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Preparation

1. Heat grill to medium. Season the salmon with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; arrange on the plank.
   
   Place the plank on the grill and cook, covered, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily, 12 to 15 minutes.
   
   In a bowl, combine the cucumber, jalapeño, lemon juice, oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Serve with the salmon.
