Main Ingredients

4 pieces Pacific King Salmon fillets

Method

Preparation

Prepare the Ingredients

Wash and cut Yukon Gold potatoes into quarters. Shuck the sweet corn and remove kernels from cobs. Chop the bacon into small pieces and roughly chop the fresh basil.

Make Basil Aioli

In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, lemon juice, minced garlic, and olive oil. Mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in chopped basil. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Cooking

Cook the Bacon

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.

Cook the Potatoes

In the same skillet with the bacon fat, add the quartered Yukon Gold potatoes. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden and tender, stirring occasionally.

Cook the Corn

Add the sweet corn to the potatoes in the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring in the crispy bacon once done.

Cook the Salmon

Season the Pacific King Salmon fillets with salt and pepper. In another skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon, skin side down, for about 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.

Serving

Plate the Dish

On each plate, serve a portion of the corn and potato mixture, topped with a salmon fillet. Drizzle with basil aioli and garnish with additional fresh basil.
