Ingredients
1 bunch green onions, trimmed and sliced lengthwise
2 lbs. Alaska Salmon fillets or portions
3 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
2 tsp. fresh grated ginger root
2 tsp. fresh lime juice
2 tsp. soy sauce
1 1/2 tsp. fresh minced garlic

Directions:

1. Soak wood plank in water 30 min. to 2 hr. Pat wood plank with paper towels and spray-coat or lightly oil one side. Place green onions on plank; top with Alaska Salmon.

2. Blend remaining ingredients; rub 1/2 to 1 tsp. on each salmon portion or all onto salmon side. Let the salmon rest 5 min. before cooking.

3. Heat grill to medium-high heat. Place the planked salmon on the grill using indirect heat (not directly over heat). Reduce heat to medium and cook in covered grill for 10 to 15 min. Cook just until salmon is opaque throughout.

*Add 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes for additional heat, if desired.
