2 pound salmon fillet
3 Tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/2 Tablespoon soy sauce
1 1/2 Teaspoon chopped garlic
1/2Teaspoon salt
1/4 Teaspoon white pepper
1/3 cup Rye or Scotch Whisky
1 Tablespoon brown sugar
Place salmon filet in a long shallow dish. Mix together all ingredients and pour over the salmon filet. Marinate for 1/2 hour.  Pre-heat oven to 400°F. Place the cedar plank directly on the oven rack and bake for 8-10 minutes.  This will lightly toast the wood.  Remove the plank from the oven and rub with a thin coating of olive oil while plank is still hot.  Place salmon directly on the hot plank and roast on the plank for about ten minutes.  Serves 4 - 6
