Ingredients

• 2 pounds Salmon fillet (skin-on)
• 1 piece Cedar grilling plank
• 0.5 cup Captain Morgan R Lime rum
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 4 slices Fresh lime slices (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by soaking the cedar grilling plank in water for at least 2 hours. This prevents the wood from catching fire during grilling.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, combine Captain Morgan R Lime rum, honey, lime juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, and ground black pepper. Heat over medium heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly reduced and syrupy.

Step 3

Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 375°F).

Step 4

Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels and rub it with olive oil. Season lightly with salt and pepper (if desired).

Step 5

Place the cedar plank on the hot grill for about 2-3 minutes, then flip it over. This step preheats the plank and enhances its smoky flavor.

Step 6

Lay the salmon fillet skin-side down on the hot side of the cedar plank.

Step 7

Brush the Captain Morgan R Lime glaze generously over the salmon. Reserve some glaze for additional brushing during cooking.

Step 8

Close the grill lid and cook the salmon for 15-20 minutes, depending on its thickness. Brush with more glaze halfway through cooking for added flavor.

Step 9

The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.

Step 10

Remove the salmon (along with the plank) from the grill and allow it to rest for 5 minutes.

Step 11

Garnish with lime slices and fresh parsley, if desired, before serving. Serve warm.
