Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 6 slices bacon
  • 1 large or 2 small shallots, diced

  • 1 cup champagne grapes, rinsed

Directions

  1. Preheat large sauté pan or skillet on medium-high heat. Add olive oil.

  2. Cut bacon into 1/2-inch pieces and add to pan. Cook 4–5 minutes until bacon just begins to crisp.
