Ingredients
- 6 thick slices bacon
- 6 slices country white bread, sliced from loaf
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 (5-ounce) piece salmon, skin removed
- Lemon Mayonnaise, recipe follows
- 1 beef steak tomato, sliced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Curly leaf lettuce, for garnish
Directions
Cook the bacon over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet until crispy. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate. Wipe the skillet with paper towels or a clean tea towel. Add the bread slices and toast until golden brown.
Pat the salmon dry and season with salt and pepper.
Heat another nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add oil. Once hot, add the salmon and cook about 3 minutes per side.
Spread the Lemon Mayonnaise on 2 pieces of bread. Season the tomato with salt and pepper, to taste. Add some lettuce, tomato, bacon and the cooked salmon fillet to 1 bread slice and cover with the other slice. Cut the sandwich in half on the diagonal and hold in place with a decorative toothpick. Repeat with remaining ingredients and arrange the sandwiches on a serving platter.
Lemon Mayonnaise:
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

This is a great recipe. I didn't make the lemon mayonaise....just used regular mayonaise, but it still awesome without that finishing touch. I've made it several times now and will keep on making it. The Neelys really do come up with some good recipes although they're not my favorite TV personalities.

I made this over the weekend and my son who's 9 LOVED it! He normally doesn't eat mayo but he absolutely loved this sandwich. I made it minus the bacon because I forgot to buy some, but it tasted great! I went to Panera for bread and toasted it in a skillet with butter. Of course my son wants to come to Memphis now and sit in your restaurant!!! Thanks!
