Ingredients

• 1 pound sliced bacon
• 1 large red onion sliced into rings
• 4 fillets red snapper, bones removed
• 1 dash soy sauce

NB: Do not close grill or leave unattended. Grease from the bacon will drip down, and may cause flare-ups.

Method

Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat.

Open fish basket, or similar wire cooking basket and line one side with strips of bacon, leaving a 1/2 inch space between slices. Cover the layer of bacon with a layer of onion rings. Place the fish fillets on top of the onion. Cover fish with more onion, then strips of bacon over the onion. Close the basket, and lightly sprinkle with soy sauce.

Place the basket on the hot grill, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until the bacon is just cooked through. Remove from grill, and open the basket. Place a similarly sized plate upside down onto the food, and flip the basket and plate over so that the food is on top of the plate.

Lift off the basket, and serve.

Ingredients

• 4 fillets cod
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons chili sauce
• 4 slices bacon
• 1 leek, chopped
• 1 ounce shitake mushrooms

NB: Do not close grill or leave unattended. Grease from the bacon will drip down, and may cause flare-ups.

Method

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Soak some toothpicks in water while the grill heats up.

Spread a thin layer of sesame oil and chili sauce onto one side of each fish fillet. At one end, place some of the leek and a couple of mushrooms. Roll towards the other end. Wrap each roll with a slice of bacon, and secure with two toothpicks.

Place on the preheated grill, and cook covered for 5 minutes. Be careful of flare-ups from the bacon grease. Turn over, and cook for 5 more minutes, until bacon is crisp and fish flakes easily.
