Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Peel and trim the shallots. Place them on a piece of aluminum foil, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and wrap into a pouch. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, or until tender and caramelized.
Meanwhile, season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon fillets and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let rest.
In the same skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Once the roasted shallots are done, let them cool slightly. Then, finely chop them and mix with mayonnaise and lemon juice in a small bowl to create the roasted shallot smear.
Butter one side of each slice of bread. Toast the bread in a skillet or toaster until golden-brown and crisp.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds.
To assemble, spread the roasted shallot smear generously on one side of each piece of bread. On the first slice, layer lettuce, a piece of salmon, and a slice of bacon. Add the second slice of bread (smear-side down), then layer tomato slices, another slice of bacon, and more lettuce. Top with the final slice of bread, smear-side down.
Slice the sandwich diagonally into halves and serve immediately.
