BACON-WRAPPED SALMON
A delicious use of some of my favorite things - bacon and salmon! The salmon stays really moist from the bacon, and the skin helps protect the bottom from cooking prematurely.

Tips:
- Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a center-cut fillet that is about 1 inch thick and has a deep pink color. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a lot of white streaks, as these will be less flavorful and moist.
- Use fresh herbs: Tarragon is a key ingredient in this recipe, so be sure to use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh tarragon, you can substitute dried tarragon, but use only half the amount.
- Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it carefully. The best way to tell if the salmon is done is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If the fork comes out easily, the salmon is done.
- Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you need to keep the salmon warm, you can place it in a warm oven (about 200 degrees Fahrenheit) for up to 15 minutes.
Conclusion:
This baked salmon with tarragon and bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the tarragon and bacon add a delicious flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
