Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) hake fillets
- 12 whole (trimmed of roots and cleaned) ramps
- 1 piece (untreated and pre-soaked) cedar plank
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 1 teaspoon (chopped) fresh thyme
- 1.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 teaspoon (freshly ground) black pepper
- 2 tablespoons (melted) unsalted butter
- 4 pieces (for serving) lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Submerge the cedar plank in water for at least 1 hour, ensuring it is fully soaked to avoid burning on the grill.
Step 2
Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 375°F).
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Pat the hake fillets dry with paper towels. Brush both sides generously with the olive oil mixture and set aside.
Step 5
Toss the cleaned ramps in 1 tablespoon of the olive oil mixture to coat evenly.
Step 6
Place the soaked cedar plank on the grill, close the lid, and heat it for 2-3 minutes until it begins to lightly smoke.
Step 7
Carefully arrange the hake fillets and ramps on the cedar plank. Brush the ramps with a little melted butter for added flavor.
Step 8
Close the grill lid and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the hake fillets are opaque and flake easily with a fork (internal temperature should reach 145°F). The ramps should be lightly charred and tender.
Step 9
Carefully remove the cedar plank from the grill using tongs or heat-resistant gloves. Allow the fish and ramps to rest for 2-3 minutes.
Step 10
Serve the hake and ramps directly from the cedar plank with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top. Enjoy!
