733. OAK SMOKED BACON WRAPPED CRAB

450g crab meat
450g smoked bacon - cut into strips
2 large jalapeno peppers
Mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese
1 lime
Skewers and a fresh salad for serving

Fill a saucepan two-thirds full with water and bring to a boil. Add the smoked bacon and blanch for 3 - 4 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Toss the crab meat with lime juice and place strips of peppers and sticks of cheese across a strip of crab meat. Wrap crab meat, peppers and cheese with one-half strip of smoked bacon and secure with skewers. Grill or barbeque gently until crab meat is done, and bacon begins to crisp. Serve on skewers with a fresh salad.
