Bacon topped Salmon

Watched Nigella make this while I was cycling on our exercise bike - made me really hungry. It does give the salmon a nice smoky flavour.


2 rashers smoked streaky bacon per salmon fillet
1 salmon fillet
lemon juice
salt & pepper

Fry the bacon in its own fat; when nice and crisp transfer to a serving plate to cool
Put the salmon fillet skin side down and fry for 5 minutes in the bacon fat
While it is frying toss salt, pepper and lemon juice on the top side
Turn the fillet over and allow to cook for at least 4 minutes or until it is done to your liking
Serve with bacon pieces on top and any juice from pan
