Double Smoked Salmon Sandwiches

About the Recipe: Could anyone improve a classic BLT sandwich? We discovered from Chef Michael Gulotta that adding some of your favorite seafood takes this sandwich over the top. We stirred chunks of smoked salmon in a bacon mayo mixture and added some peppers, chives, and pickles to the party. The results were perfect to tuck into a toasted Brioche bread BLT sandwich. It’s a five-star special!

Recipe Inspired by Chef Michael Gulotta; for his original recipe Blue Crab, Bacon and Tomato Sandwiches see: https://www.today.com/recipes/blue-crab-bacon-tomato-sandwiches-recipe-t157851

Cook’s Note: This recipe can be prepared with your favorite fish or crab. If you use smoked thick bacon, cut 4 slices in half to make the 8 slices.

Making Each Sandwich: Place toasted bread with Parmesan side up; spread about 1/3 cup salmon filling on toasted bread; top with two slices bacon, 2 slices of tomato and one leaf of lettuce. Spread 1/2 Tablespoon reserved sauce over one Parmesan toasted bread slice; close sandwich firmly; cut in half diagonally. Repeat steps to prepare the remaining three sandwiches.
