Brochette Of Salmon With Bacon Recipes

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.

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.

ROAST SALMON WITH PEAS, POTATOES & BACON

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the potatoes into a large shallow roasting tin and toss with 1 tsp olive oil and some seasoning. Roast for 20 mins until just starting to colour, then scatter over the lardons and return to the oven for 10 mins to crisp up.
• Remove the tin from the oven, push the potatoes and bacon to the sides and lay the salmon in the middle. Brush with remaining oil, season, then return to the oven and cook for 20 mins more until the salmon is just cooked through. Meanwhile, cook the peas in boiling water for 2 mins and drain.
• When the fish is cooked, lift it to a serving dish. Stir the peas and spring onions through the potatoes, drizzle with a splash of vinegar, stir through the mint and season to taste. Spoon around the salmon and serve.

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.

• Heat a nonstick skillet and add the bacon pieces in one layer. Scatter the sweet pepper and onion cubes over the bacon. Cook, shaking the pieces and stirring for about 1 minute. Drain and let cook slightly.
• Drain the bacon mixture.
• Arrange the various foods on each of the skewers as follows: 1 sweet pepper cube, a piece of bacon, 1 piece of salmon, a cube of onion, a piece of salmon, a cube of onion, a piece of bacon, a piece of salmon and a cube of pepper.
• Brush brochettes all over with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• If the brochettes are to be cooked under the broiler, arrange them on a rack. Place them about 4 inches from the source of heat and leave the door slightly ajar. Cook 3 minutes on one side and turn the brochettes to the other side. Cook 2 minutes. If the brochettes are to be cooked on a charcoal grill, place them on the grill and cook 3 minutes. Turn and cook on the other side about 2 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the butter and add the lemon juice and basil. Stir and pour or brush the sauce over the brochettes.
