Ingredients

  • 1 Whole Side of Salmon
  • 1 tbsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 tbsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tbsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tbsp Brown Sugar
  • 4-5 Lemons sliced
  • 2 tsp Chopped Chives

Horseradish Sauce:

  • 2.5 tbsp Sour Cream
  • 2.5 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 2.5 tbsp Fresh Capers
  • 1.5 tbsp Prepared Horseradish
  • 1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
  • 2 tsp Champagne Vinegar

Instructions

  • Preheat your grill for a two zone medium heat fire (around 250F).
  • Generously season your salmon with salt, pepper, garlic powder and brown sugar.
  • Thinly slice your lemons until you have enough to set the entire side of salmon on top. Set aside.
  • In a bowl, mix all the ingredients for the Horseradish sauce. Set to the side.
  • Add all your sliced lemons to the cool side of the grill to create a “plank” for your salmon to lay on. Place the salmon on top of the lemons. Close your grill lid and cook indirectly for 45-60 minutes.
  • Cook the salmon until it reaches an internal temperature of 130 degrees F. Once done, use a large metal spatula to pull the salmon off the grill to cool for 1-2 minutes.
  • Drizzle the horseradish sauce over the top of the salmon and garnish with more capers and the chopped chives. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

How to Choose Your Salmon
When shopping for a side of salmon at your local seafood counter, look for salmon that has a vibrant color, firm texture, and a clean scent.
