12 - 16 fresh jalapeno peppers

1/2 cup diced onion
1 tbs. minced garlic
Bacon sliced in 1" lengths to produce one for each pepper
Olive oil
Salt & Pepper
Cut stem end of jalapenos removing membrane & seeds.
Hint: use latex kitchen gloves to protect yourself from getting juices on your hands
Sauté bacon, onion and garlic in olive oil for a few minutes (The bacon grease and olive oil make a nice combined taste. Add seafood of your choice, stir and sauté a few minutes until done. Add salt and pepper and stir. Take off of fire and cool a few minutes. Fish the pieces of bacon out.
Stuff one piece of bacon and some mixture into the jalapenos.
Set on grill on a med fire away from the fire turning every few minutes. Cook on all sides at least a few minutes. Now set them right over the fire and brown on 2 sides very lightly.
