Bacon Wrapped Salmon Bites
Equipment
- Grill
- Toothpicks
Ingredients
- 8 ounces fresh salmon fillet
- 8 ounces bacon (about 8 strips), cut in half
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Get your grill ready by preheating it to a medium-high temperature.
- Carefully slice your salmon fillet into 16 equal, bite-sized cubes (around ½ ounce each). Then, cut each bacon strip in half.
- Take one salmon cube and gently wrap it with half a strip of bacon. Secure it firmly with a toothpick. Repeat for all pieces.
- Lightly season all the wrapped bites with black pepper.
- For a healthier cook and to avoid flare-ups, turn off one of your grill burners. Place your salmon bites directly over the burner that is *off*. This indirect heat method is great for preventing grease fires!
- Grill for approximately 8 to 10 minutes. You'll know they're perfectly cooked when the bacon is wonderfully crispy and the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 125°F. Enjoy your healthy, flavorful bites!
