Recipe

Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 15 mins Ready Time: 25 mins


• cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.
• preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. evenly coat the salmon with the olive oil.
• cook the salmon on the preheated grill with the skin side down for about 5 minutes before flipping and cooking on the other side until the skin can easily be lifted off the flesh, about 5 minutes more. flip the salmon once more and continue cooking until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, another 2 to 3 minutes.
• whisk the mayonnaise, dill, and lemon zest together in a small bowl; divide between 2 of the toasted bread slices. top each with 1 portion of cooked salmon, 2 tomato slices, 2 bacon slices, 1 lettuce leaf, and a remaining slice of toasted bread.
