Alder Roasted Salmon with Dill and Cranberries
This festive grilled salmon topped with dill and cranberries is a unique PNW holiday meal the whole family will enjoy!
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 c. unsalted butter softened
- 1/4 c. fresh dill weed chopped
- 1/4 c. dried cranberries roughly chopped
- 1 T. fresh lemon juice
- 2 tsp. pink and green peppercorns crushed
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 6 (8 oz.) King salmon fillets skin on
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a medium bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients. Place salmon, skin side down on an alder plank. Spread butter mixture over salmon fillets.
- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes (depending on the thickness of the fillets) or until done.
- Cook's Note: We recommend a reusable alder plank with a trough cut in the center to hold juices. If using a flat disposable alder plank, place in a shallow baking pan to collect drippings.
- You can bake in the oven as suggested OR cook outdoors in a covered grill over high heat. Keep a spray bottle of water close by in case of flare ups.
