Ingredients:

Smoked bacon
Red apples
Onions
A splash of white wine
Salmon
1 tablespoon of butter

Method

Cut the bacon in half, stack it and then slice it into thin ribbons and dice the ribbons into pieces. (note: the bacon will be easier to cut if it is frozen or slightly frozen. ) Dice the onions and slice the apples.

Add butter to a saute pan and add the bacon. Cook for a few minutes, then add the onions and apples.

Deglaze the pan with a little white wine and remove from heat.

Place the salmon in an oven proof pan and broil in the oven for 5-6 minutes.

Plate the salmon and pour the sauteed bacon, apples and onions over it before serving.
