This was a good recipe that was quick and easy...I subbed Blackberries they looked more appealing than the Raspberries available. The jalapenos definitely added a kick that went well with the sweet soy sauce. I was requested to make it again so I must not be the only one who enjoyed it. =

I made this for my family and I have to say with only a few things I would do different my whole family loved it! I felt that we could have used 6 oz of fish instead of 4 oz of fish each. The other thingsI would have done differently is to add a few more jalapenos (as we like the flavor, cook the bacon a little longer initially, and cook the fish a little longer than suggested. Otherwise it was a hit and worthy of keeping! Thanks!
