Servings: persons

6 scallions, thinly sliced
1 serrano chile, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon finely grated peeled ginger
1/2 teaspoon light brown sugar
Kosher salt
Vegetable oil (for grill)
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons sambal oelek
1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
1 teaspoon Sriracha
1/2 pound thick-cut bacon
Lime wedges (for serving)
8 (8-12-inch-long) metal skewers

1
Toss scallions, chile, lime juice, oil, ginger, and brown sugar in a medium bowl to combine; season with salt.
2
Prepare a grill for medium-high, indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off). Oil grates. Combine honey, sambal oelek, vinegar, and Sriracha in a small bowl; set glaze aside.
3
Thread bacon onto 6-8 skewers, folding back and forth in accordion style, and grill over indirect heat, turning every minute or so, until browned and crisp, 10-12 minutes. Baste with reserved glaze, turning every 30 seconds or so, until lacquered and slightly sticky, about 3 minutes (move to an even cooler spot if needed to keep glaze from scorching). Serve bacon with relish and lime wedges.
4
Glaze can be made 1 week ahead. Cover and chill.

Variations & substitutions
