Method

Prepare the Salmon

  1. 1

    Season the Salmon

    Rub the Atlantic salmon fillets with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Make sure the fillets are evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Grill the Salmon

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the seasoned salmon fillets on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Remove from grill and let rest.

Cook the Bacon

  1. 3

    Fry the Bacon

    In a skillet, cook the applewood smoked bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Make the Aioli

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.

Assemble the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Toast the Brioche

    Toast the brioche slices on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom slice of toasted brioche, spread a generous amount of lemon Dijon aioli. Layer with arugula, grilled salmon, crispy bacon, and sliced tomato. Top with another slice of brioche.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately, with extra lemon Dijon aioli on the side if desired.
