Bacon Wrapped Salmon Food

BACON-WRAPPED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet liberally with olive oil.
• Place the salmon fillets onto the baking sheet skin-side-down. Sprinkle the fillets with garlic powder, dill, salt, and pepper. Lay the bacon strips over the fillets to cover completely. Do not overlap the bacon strips.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the salmon is no longer translucent in the center, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven on to broil and cook until the bacon has crisped, 1 to 2 minutes.

BACON-WRAPPED HOISIN SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F Spray a broiler pan with cooking spray.
• Wash salmon under cold water and pat dry with paper towel. Wrap each filet with 2 strips of bacon and secure with toothpicks. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Combine hoisin sauce, maple syrup, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup, garlic, and ginger together in a small saucepan. Turn heat to medium to warm, stirring occasionally.
• Place salmon on broiler pan and cover with half the prepared sauce (it doesn't have to be warm yet). Place in preheated oven and set timer for 10 minutes.
• Place salmon on rice or noodles (or rice noodles!) and pour remaining sauce over top.

BACON WRAPPED SALMON

Steps:

• Start by seasoning your salmon with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with lemon zest.
• Next take bacon and wrap around the salmon fillets. I did 2 pieces of bacon per piece of salmon. Depending on how large or small your salmon fillets are the bacon can be adjusted.
• In a skillet on medium-high heat you will pan sear your bacon salmon for 2-3 minutes. Then flip the fillet over and cook the other side.
• Preheat the oven and once the bacon is done searing cook in the oven broiling on high for 3-4 minutes or until the salmon reaches 145 degrees F.
• Now, you can flip the bacon salmon over half way through cooking in the oven. That will ensure a more even cook on the bacon.
• Once the bacon wrapped salmon is done, you can remove from the oven and brush with the maple syrup if you want. It will add a nice sweetness to the salmon.

PANCETTA-WRAPPED SALMON

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Boil the potatoes for 5 mins. Drain and tip into a bowl - they will be slightly underdone. Toss with the tarragon, lemon zest, butter and seasoning to taste. Pile in the centre of a foil-lined baking tray.
• Season salmon with black pepper and wrap the pancetta or prosciutto around the fillets. Place on top of the potatoes and roast for 15-20 mins, or until the fish flakes easily and the pancetta or prosciutto is golden. Serve with steamed green beans.

SALMON WITH BACON AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat one tablespoon of the oil in a nonstick frying pan. Season the salmon and fry for 3 minutes skin-side up. Transfer to a plate.
• Fry the bacon for 4-5 minutes. Add the red onion, fry for 2 minutes, then add the mushrooms, cook for 5 minutes more and stir in the lemon zest.
• Put the salmon on top of the onion mixture in the pan (or use an ovenproof dish) and broil on high for 2-3 minutes. Mix the vinegar, the rest of the oil and the rosemary with a pinch of sugar and season.
• Spoon over the salmon. Good with celeriac mash or crispy roast potatoes.

BACON-WRAPPED BOURBON-MARINATED SALMON

Steps:

• Mix steak seasoning sauce, 6 tablespoons brown sugar, bourbon, and scallions together in a large bowl to make marinade.
• Toss salmon cubes in marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit in the refrigerator, 4 to 6 hours.
• Wrap each salmon cube with bacon; use a toothpick to hold bacon in place. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar on top.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill bacon-wrapped salmon, turning frequently, until bacon begins to crisp, about 5 minutes.
