For optimal flavor, use a high-quality, thick-cut bacon. Be careful not to overcook the bacon in the skillet during the initial cooking step. It should still be flexible enough to wrap around the halibut. Watch the broiler carefully to prevent the bacon from burning. The cooking time may vary depending on your broiler. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a dipping sauce of your choice (such as a lemon-dill aioli) to brighten the flavors.
