Great, easy dinner recipe for the whole family: Salmon BLT Sandwiches
I’m a lover of salmon. And I’m an even bigger lover of bacon. So this sandwich is a no brainer! It’s dressed with a simple caper mayonnaise and loaded with green leaf lettuce and heirloom tomatoes. OH, and salmon and bacon too… all on a buttery toasted roll.
My son and I made these for dinner last week, and I don’t think we said a word to each other the entire time we were eating dinner. We simply gobbled up these Salmon BLT’s and then discussed how incredibly good they were!
Salmon BLT
These BLT's are stuffed with caper mayo, salmon, bacon, lettuce and tomato.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 1½ teaspoons chopped capers
- 2 drizzles olive oil
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 fillets salmon (long and thin to fit a sub roll)
- 1 tablespoon butter, softened
- 2 sub rolls
- green leaf lettuce
- 4 slices tomato
- 4 strips bacon (cooked until crisp)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the mayo and capers. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. (or preheat grill).
- Place the salmon fillets on a pan, drizzle them with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or just until cooked through (or grill the salmon!)
- Meanwhile, butter the rolls and toast them under the broiler for a couple of minutes, or until golden.
- Divide the caper mayo between the two rolls. Top each with lettuce, salmon, tomato slices and bacon. Serve!
