  2. Place oil, soy sauce, sugar, bourbon, ginger and lemon juice in mixing bowl; whisk together. Marinade salmon for 30 minutes.

  3. Preheat grill to medium heat.

  4. Place cedar plank on heated grill 3-5 minutes until hot. Flip plank over, place salmon on plank, and season with salt. Cook 15 minutes, depending on thickness of fish. Remove from plank when done; serve with salsa.

  5. Heat a large sauce pot with grapeseed oil. Add diced onion and cook until translucent. Add rice and stir to coat each grain separately.
