Directions
Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).
1. Lay the bacon on a board, slightly overlapping, and put the fish fillets in the center.
2. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, crumbled bouillon cube, and pink peppercorns. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with dill.
3. Wrap the fish with bacon so that it holds together quite firmly and tie with kitchen twine.
4. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, drizzle with olive oil, and grill in the oven for 20-30 minutes. Check often so that the fish doesn’t dry up.
5. Make beautiful slices and serve with a crisp green salad seasoned with aromatic herbs and grapefruit chunks.
Notes: You can use any white fish in this recipe, such as sea bass, halibut, or haddock.
