Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook bacon until it's just beginning to brown but remains pliable. (5-7 minutes). Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to cool slightly.

02

Step
2 mins

Preheat oven broiler and position the rack a few inches from the heat source.

03

Step
1 mins

Season the halibut cubes generously with freshly ground black pepper.

04

Step
5 mins

Wrap each halibut cube with a piece of partially cooked bacon, securing it with a toothpick.

05

Step
1 mins

Arrange the bacon-wrapped halibut bites on a baking sheet.

06

Step
6 mins

Broil in the preheated oven until the fish is cooked through and the bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes, flipping halfway through for even cooking. (5 minutes)

07

Step
1 mins

Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately while warm.

For optimal flavor, use a high-quality, thick-cut bacon.
Be careful not to overcook the bacon in the skillet during the initial cooking step. It should still be flexible enough to wrap around the halibut.
Watch the broiler carefully to prevent the bacon from burning. The cooking time may vary depending on your broiler.
Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a dipping sauce of your choice (such as a lemon-dill aioli) to brighten the flavors.

    I used thinner bacon, and it worked fine, but I had to use a whole slice per cube.

    The maple syrup glaze is a game-changer! Adds a wonderful sweetness.

    I added a sprinkle of smoked paprika before broiling, and it gave them an amazing smoky flavor.

    Easy to make and even easier to eat! Will definitely be making these again.

    Absolutely delicious! The bacon was perfectly crispy, and the halibut was so moist and flavorful.
