Step 4
4 (You may have to do this in two batches
Step 5
5 ) Transfer them to a plate to drain, leaving the rendered bacon fat in the pan and the pan over medium heat
Step 6
6 Toast the bread until just lightly brown
Step 7

Step 12
12 Season them with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper
Step 13
13 Gently lay the fillets in the hot bacon fat in the skillet (so each one lands with a splash away from you), skinned sides up

Step 15
15 Spread one side of each toasted bread slice with the lemon-basil mayo

Step 17
17 Top with remaining toasted bread slices
Step 18
