Bacon-Wrapped Sea Bass

Submitted by Thorsten

"Tasty grilled fish recipe. Combines nicley the flavors of bacon and fish. Can be prepared in advance, quick, easy and delicious. Serve with crusty bread and green salad. I made this recipe for me and a friend. We only have grilled fish, bread, salad and some white wine and beer. Each of us had one fish. Who needs more on a warm and sunny summer afternoon? It became one of my favorite grilled fish recipes."
