Fish and Bacon Aglio Olio recipe

This is the first time something experimental and original actually tasted kinda good, so I'll write down what I did here for you guys to try.

This should feed four hungry people.

Ingredients:
- Spaghetti 1 pack
- Garlic 1 1/2 whole pieces
- Olive oil, around half a small cup, moderate it yourself
- Dory fillet, 2 pieces
- Bacon, 6-8 strips
- White mushrooms, sliced (you can get these sliced in packs at a supermarket)
- 1 Chilli
- 2 teaspoons salt
- Grated parmesan cheese
- Black pepper

Instructions:
1. Boil the spaghetti according to packet instructions. Drain the water away when its done and set it aside.
2. Chop the garlic and chilli into fine pieces. Chop the fish and bacon into reasonable sizes.
3. Heat up a wok and add a little olive oil. Throw the fish in, stir them around for a few seconds and take them out. Don't need to be fully cooked. Set it aside.
4. Put in the ingredients in the following order, adding oil as necessary and stirring them for a while before adding the next item: Garlic, bacon, chilli, mushrooms, fish.
5. When the whole mixture is nice and fragrant, add the cooked spaghetti and stir fry the whole thing, adding olive oil if necessary. If the spaghetti has dried up, add some hot water to soften it up.
6. Serve with black pepper and parmesan cheese. The pepper is optional but the cheese is mandatory.
