1
Prepare the Bacon and Garlic
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the applewood bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon, leaving the drippings in the skillet, and set aside on a paper towel. In the same skillet, add sliced garlic and cook until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
2
Make the Succotash
In the same skillet, add olive oil and sweet corn. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the corn is tender. Stir in the cooked bacon, season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
3
Cook the Salmon
Pat the salmon fillets dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. In the same skillet, add butter and heat over medium-high heat. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the salmon fillets skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until cooked through.

Plate the Dish
Serve the pan-seared salmon over a generous scoop of sweet corn succotash and top with crispy garlic chips. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
