When it comes to sushi, people are divided. Some love having it morning, noon, and night, and others choke at the very thought of eating raw fish. But one thing is certain: Elaborately prepared sushi rolls are an impressive sight. Now there’s a more Western take on traditional sushi that everyone can enjoy!
Grill Sushi Rolls
Equipment
- Sushi rolling mat
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb ground beef
- 6-10 slices bacon
- 3.5 oz Swiss cheese cut into long, thick rectangles
- 1 tsp paprika powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 3 tbsp BBQ sauce
- crushed tortilla chips
Instructions
- Season the ground beef with paprika powder, cayenne, salt, pepper, and BBQ sauce.
- Spread a sushi rolling mat on your work area, and place your bacon slices next to each other on the mat. Spread the ground beef over the bacon, flattening it with the back of a spoon. Place a long block of Swiss cheese in the middle and perpendicular to the bacon. Roll it up carefully.
- Prepare your beef and bacon sushi on the grill or in the oven. Place the sushi roll away from direct heat if using a grill. Brush the sushi roll several times with BBQ sauce to prevent the bacon from burning. Bake for 40 minutes at 350°F.
- When the roll is finished cooking, sprinkle with crushed tortilla chips or crispy onion. Cut into small pieces and serve with BBQ sauce on the side, and maybe even a few jalapeños!
