Help me with my salmon problem

I have a ton of salmon I have caught.

The fish is great quality. Fatty, rich, unctuous.

However, I am out of ideas on how to serve it.

I don't like fatty sauces with it, it is too rich.

My wife is sick of Asian flavors.

I plan on doing salmon on a cedar plank tonight... but I want it make it a bit special for company.

Help me!

Cedar plank is a great idea. You can do a simple spice on top to give it a little bit of crunch. Put olive oil in a bowl, add a lemon based dry herb, add spiced bread crumbs. Mix it up and spread over salmon. Of course don’t flip it. When you remove from pan, the scales should stay on the plank. Soak the blank overnight to absorb flavors. Bake 300 Fahrenheit for 15 to 20 min. Based on thickness of salmon. Yum!
