Grilled Mushrooms and Bacon

1. 1

   Start a charcoal or gas grill or preheat the broiler: the fire should be medium-hot and the grill rack at least 4 inches from the heat source.

2. 2

   Make 4 small skewers, alternating mushrooms and bacon.

3. 3

   (If you are using sliced bacon, cut the 6 pieces in half, then fold each over onto itself as you skewer it.)

4. 4

   Grill, turning frequently, until the bacon is crisp on the outside and the mushrooms tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

5. 5

   Serve, offering vinaigrette or aioli as a dipping sauce.

6. 6

   Half of an English breakfast: Put 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil in a skillet and turn the heat to medium-high.

7. 7

   A minute later, add the mushrooms and bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crisp and the mushrooms browned and tender, about 10 minutes.

8. 8

   Skewer if you like (its a nicer presentation) and serve.
