Ingredients

4 servings

For the plank

1 cedar grilling plank (about 7×15 inches)

For the salmon

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each), skin-on, pin bones removed
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp fine sea salt
½ tsp ground turmeric
¼ tsp ground ginger
Ingredient note
Low residue diets limit seeds and coarse spices. Only a trace of ground ground ginger is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid ground ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.

For the herb topping

2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
Ingredient note
Low residue diets limit fibrous leafy greens and herbs. Parsley is used here only as a small amount of chopped fresh herb for seasoning, so it is likely low residue. If you prefer to always avoid fresh parsley, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced
Ingredient note
Low residue diets limit fibrous leafy greens and herbs. Chives are used here only as a small amount of chopped fresh herb for seasoning, so they are likely low residue. If you prefer to always avoid them, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 tsp lemon zest (from about 1 lemon)
Ingredient note
Low residue diets limit citrus peel because it adds fiber and residue. The small amount of lemon zest here contributes very little, so it is likely low residue. If you prefer to always avoid lemon peel, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 tbsp olive oil

For serving

1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Ingredient note
Low Residue diets limit fruit juices with pulp, but juice carries only a trace of the fruit's fiber, and just a small amount of lemon juice is used here, so it is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid lemon juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
lemon wedges, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Submerge the cedar plank in a large baking dish or rimmed sheet pan filled with cold water. Weight it down with a heavy can or plate and soak for at least 1 hour.
2
In a small bowl, stir together the parsley, thyme, rosemary, chives, lemon zest, and 1 tbsp olive oil until combined. Set aside.
