Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450ºF.
- Combine the scallops and the teriyaki sauce in a shallow bowl and marinate for about 15 minutes minimum, I usually go all the way to 1 hour if I use whole scallops.
- While the scallops are marinating, line up half of the water chestnuts on a plate or on your cutting board. Optional, 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. If using whole sea scallops, you will be placing the sliced water chestnut on the side of the scallop.
- 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.
- If using whole scallops you will actually roll the bacon around the scallop, just as you wrap bacon around a Fillet Mignon, placing the water chestnut between the bacon and the scallop, using the toothpicks to hold the wrapped bacon slice, and chestnut.
- 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.
- The key ingredient to getting this recipes unique flavor is using Apple Wood Smoked, Peppered, thick slice bacon.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality scallops. Look for scallops that are plump and have a slightly briny smell. Avoid scallops that are slimy or have a strong odor.
- Wrap the scallops in bacon tightly. This will help keep the scallops moist and flavorful.
- Cook the scallops over medium heat. This will help prevent them from overcooking and becoming tough.
- Baste the scallops with the teriyaki sauce during cooking. This will help keep them moist and flavorful.
- Serve the scallops immediately. They are best when eaten fresh out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Teriyaki bacon-wrapped scallops are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The scallops are tender and juicy, the bacon is crispy and flavorful, and the teriyaki sauce is sweet and tangy. These scallops are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them!
