Herb Salmon on Cedar Plank
Healthy, because

Nutritional values
Salmon contains a large portion of vitamin D, which the body needs for strong bones and teeth. In addition, the fatty fish provides considerable amounts of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids.
As a side dish, our grilled green asparagus is a great choice - it harmonizes perfectly with the taste and is just as noble as the tender fish.

Preparation steps
Soak cedar plank in cold water for at least 1 hour. Meanwhile, rinse salmon fillets, pat dry and coat with 2 tablespoons oil. Pour remaining oil into a small bowl. Wash herbs, shake dry, pluck off leaves and tips and chop finely. Add herbs, salt and pepper to the oil.
Drain plank, pat dry, and place on the grate of a hot kettle grill, cover, and heat for 5 minutes until wood smokes slightly.
Sprinkle plank with coarse sea salt, place salmon fillets skin side down on plank, brush top with herb oil, reserving some oil, and grill fish, covered, for about 20 minutes.
Rinse lemon, dab dry, and cut into wedges. Remove plank from the grill, brush salmon fillets with remaining herb oil, and serve with lemon wedges.
