Ingredients

For the Salmon

4 skin-on, deboned 4 oz salmon filets
4 sprigs thyme
1 tbs. salt
1 12-inch untreated cedar plank
¼ cup olive oil

For the “Succotash”

¼ cup olive oil
1 small red onion, peeled and minced
1 can white beans, drained and rinsed
¼ lb of haricots verts, trimmed and sliced into 1-inch pieces
2 ears fresh corn, husked with kernels cut from the cob
1 pint cherry tomatoes
¼ cup pinot noir
½ cup chicken stock
3 sprigs fresh thyme
¼ parsley, stemmed and chopped
salt and pepper to taste

Saba

Saba can purchased by the bottle from specialty stores or online.

How To Make

1
Prepare a grill or heat an oven to 425℉.
2
Season the fish with salt drizzle and olive oil. Place the cedar plank on a sheet pan. Space the filets evenly on the cedar plank and top with the thyme sprigs.
3
While the grill or oven is heating, heat the olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with some salt and add the beans, haricots verts and corn and continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
While the succotash is cooking, place the salmon in the oven. If grilling, place the plank directly on the grill and cover. Cook the salmon for 10-15 minutes or until the desired temperature is reached.
5
While the salmon cooks, add the cherry tomatoes, wine, and chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the salmon is done. Adjust the seasoning and add the herbs.
6
To serve, place a generous amount of succotash in the middle of each plate, top with the salmon (with or without skin), and drizzle with Saba.
