Grilled Mahi Mahi ala ~DKBB~

(original recipe from cdkitchen.com)

6 Tbsp. olive oil

6 Tbsp. lemon juice

¼ cup chopped fresh basil

2 Tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary

2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

2 tsp. low-sodium soy sauce

4 mahi mahi fillets, 4 to 6 oz. each (or you can use swordfish or halibut)

Salt and freshly ground cracked pepper

• In a small bowl, combine the first 8 ingredients.
• Sprinkle fish fillets with salt and cracked pepper; place into gallon-size zip-top bag and pour in marinade; seal and shake gently to coat fish evenly.
• Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but no more than 6.
• Preheat grill to medium low; grill fillets, turning carefully, 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until fish begins to brown and flakes with a fork. You can grill the fish directly on the grill, or on foil, or on a soaked wood plank – your preference.

Serve with rice.

Grilled Stuffed Steak ala ~DKBB~

Grilled Stuffed Steak ala ~DKBB~

1½ lbs round or flank steak

1½ cups Italian bread crumbs

2 Tbsp. dried parsley

3 cloves garlic, minced

½ tsp. Hungarian paprika

6 thin slices bacon

6 thin slices provolone

Salt and pepper (optional)

• Leaving steak in large one piece, pound it to ¼ inch thickness; salt and pepper both sides of steak if desired.
• Cook bacon to flexible (but not crisp) state; remove from grease and drain on paper towels.
• Combine the bread crumbs, parsley, garlic, and paprika and cook in 1 to 2 Tbsp. of the bacon grease.
• Cover the steak with the bread crumb mixture, then layer on the bacon strips and the provolone; roll it up tight (lengthwise) and tie it with kitchen string if desired (to help hold it together while you do the following step).
• Cut the roll into 2 to 3 inch widths, skewering each width onto a metal or wooden-soaked skewer (using toothpicks to help hold each roll together as needed); depending upon skewer size, you should be able to get 2 or 3 rolls on each skewer.
• Grill the skewers for approximately 15 to 20 minutes, turning frequently to be sure every side is cooked.

Serves 2 to 4.
