Breakfast strip (5)
I believe the answer is:
bacon
'breakfast strip' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for bacon that I've seen before include "English philosopher, d.1626 - Irish painter, d. 1992" , "What the breadwinner brings home?" , "successfully brought home" , "Eg, rashers" , "Meat (brought home by a breadwinner?)" .)
