How to Make Grilled Bacon Wrapped Tilapia Fresh Fruit Salsa Rsc

  1. **Prepare the Peach Salsa:** Slice peaches around the pit, twist to separate halves, and remove pits. Chop peaches into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine chopped peaches, red onion, and red bell pepper.
  3. Add lime juice (from half the lime), honey, salt, and pepper. Stir in cilantro.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  5. **Prepare the Tilapia:** Preheat grill to 375-425°F (190-220°C) using charcoal; allow at least 30-45 minutes to reach temperature.
  6. Wrap each tilapia fillet with two slices of bacon. Drizzle with remaining lime juice and season with pepper and garlic powder.
  7. Place each bacon-wrapped fillet on a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  8. Fold foil over the fillets to create a sealed packet. Make sure to seal tightly to prevent juices from escaping.
  9. Place foil packets on the indirect heat section of the grill. Grill for 30-40 minutes, or until the fish is flaky and the bacon is cooked through.
  10. Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes before opening.
  11. Top each fillet with a generous spoonful of peach salsa. Close the foil packet to warm the salsa slightly.
  12. Serve the tilapia in the foil packets on a large plate with grilled tomato slices and a grilled flour tortilla. Garnish with extra peach salsa and cilantro.
