• 3 strips of diced smoked bacon • 2 cloves of garlic, crushed • 2 tbsp. onion • 1/3 green pepper, 1/3 red pepper and 1/3 yellow pepper sliced into thin strips • 2 sticks of butter • 1 tsp Cayenne pepper • 1 1/2 tsp Grey Poupon mustard • 1/4 tsp dried basil • 1/4 tsp dried thyme • 1/4 tsp dried oregano • 1 - 5 squirts Tabasco sauce (be careful now) • 2 tbsp crab boil seasoning or Old Bay seasoning • 1 1/2 pounds of pike filets cut into cubes • handful of fresh shrimp and/or small scallops

Preheat the oven to 375° F. Sauté the bacon, onion, garlic in a skillet until the onion is translucent. Add the green, red and yellow pepper and stir it around the skillet. Add the butter, mustard, cayenne, basil, thyme, oregano, Tabasco and crab boil. Simmer for 3 minutes. Add the cubed pike and shrimp. Stir and simmer for another 3 minutes. Transfer to a baking dish and bake for 15 minutes.
I always serve the pike on a bed of steamed brown rice or a mix of brown rice and ancient grains
