Categories     appetizer

Time 26m

Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 jumbo raw peeled deveined shrimp, 16 to 20 count per pound
12 large sea scallops, trimmed and well drained
1 lime, juiced and zested
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon grill seasoning or coarse salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
12 slices center cut or applewood smoked bacon, cut in 1/2
Toothpicks
3 scallions, very thinly sliced on an angle

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Place shrimp and scallops in a shallow dish or bowl. Dress seafood with lime juice and zest, a generous drizzle of sesame oil, grill seasoning and hot pepper flakes. Wrap each shrimp and scallop with a half slice of bacon. Wrap each shrimp working from head to tail, pulling bacon snuggly around the shrimp. Wrap the bacon around the outside of each scallop. Fasten bacon in place as necessary with picks.
  • Arrange the shrimp and scallops on a slotted baking pan, such as a broiler pan, to allow draining while bacon crisps. Bake shrimp and scallops 10 to 14 minutes, until shrimp is pink and curled, scallops are opaque and bacon is crisp. Shrimps may finish before the scallops.
  • Arrange cooked seafood on platter and sprinkle with chopped scallions.

I'm posting this because I want to have it in my books to try. I love scallops and saw this on her show today. I have not tried yet, so if anyone does let me know how it worked.

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 35m

Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 large sea scallops, cut into quarters
1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
48 slices water chestnuts
24 slices pickled ginger
12 slices bacon, thickly sliced and cut in half
24 toothpicks

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450ºF.
  • Combine the scallops and the teriyaki sauce in a shallow bowl and marinate for about 15 minutes.
  • While the scallops are marinating, line up half of the water chestnuts on a plate or on your cutting board. Place a slice of the pickled ginger on each one, then top with another slice of water chestnut. Place a marinated scallop on top of the water chestnut tower.
  • Spread the bacon slices out on a cutting board, as many as you have room for. Place a water chestnut-scallop tower on the end of a bacon slice, then roll the bacon around the tower - you should have 2 bacon sides and 2 exposed water chestnut scallop sides. Put a toothpick through the tower to hold the bacon in place.
  • Arrange the bacon-wrapped scallops on a broiler pan or a rack on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven for 15 minutes or until the bacon is crispy.

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 33m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 pieces bacon
24 scallops, rinsed and patted dry
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning, to taste
1 teaspoon creole seasoning, to taste
1 cup ketchup
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup white vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • If you prefer, the bacon can be pre-cooked for a couple of minutes in the microwave to insure it will be crispy by the time the scallops are done.
  • Do not overcook the scallops as they will be rubbery.
  • Cut each piece of bacon in half to make 24 pieces.
  • Roll a piece of bacon around each scallop and secure on wooden skewers.
  • Place scallops on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Sprinkle with Old Bay and creole seasoning.
  • Both seasonings contain salt, so don't overdo it!
  • Amounts listed are what I used.
  • Bake at 425 degrees for 15-18 minutes, or until the scallops are done.
  • The bacon should be crispy.
  • While the scallops are cooking, combine the ketchup, brown sugar and vinegar in a saucepan to make the dipping sauce.
  • Mix well and cook until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Serve the scallops with the dipping sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right scallops. Look for large, dry scallops that are free of any blemishes. Avoid scallops that are wet or slimy.
  • Wrap the scallops tightly in bacon. This will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Cook the scallops over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the bacon and cook the scallops through.
  • Do not overcook the scallops. They should be cooked through but still slightly translucent in the center.
  • Serve the scallops immediately. They are best enjoyed hot off the grill.

Conclusion:

Bacon-wrapped scallops are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a special occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to impress your guests. So next time you are looking for a new recipe to try, give bacon-wrapped scallops a try.
