Now, let’s talk about what you’ll need for this mouth-watering recipe:
Ingredients:
- 4 salmon fillets
- 8 slices of bacon
- 2 cups of baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons of olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure the salmon gets that perfect texture later on.
- While the oven is heating up, let’s tackle those baby potatoes. Boil them in a pot of salted water until they’re tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Once they’re good and soft, drain the water and transfer the potatoes back to the pot. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Smash those potatoes to your desired texture – you can keep them chunky or make them a bit smoother.
- Now for the star of the show – the salmon! Take each fillet and wrap it tightly with two slices of bacon. The bacon not only keeps the salmon moist but also adds a nice smoky flavor – oh, it’s gonna be good!
- Place the wrapped salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the remaining olive oil over the tops and sprinkle a little more salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake the salmon in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the salmon is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Once they’re done, let them rest for a few minutes. Serve your Bacon Wrapped Salmon alongside those delicious smashed potatoes and sprinkle some fresh parsley on top for that pop of color and flavor.
- Dig in and enjoy the compliments that come your way! Trust me, no one will be able to resist this dish.
So there you have it, folks! A meal that will have everyone asking for seconds. Enjoy making this bacon-wrapped delight and bring on the good times!
