Spicy Bacon-Wrapped Scallops image

I like my bacon-wrapped scallops a little spicy, so I added a kick to them. I often prepare these for my husband for our date nights and serve them with steak.

These were good, but not great. The bacon was a little bit too crispy for my taste, and the scallops were a little bit overcooked. I think I would try this recipe again, but I would make a few changes. I would use thinner bacon, and I would cook the

I've made these several times now, and they are always a hit! I like to use large scallops, and I cook them for a little bit longer than the recipe calls for, so that they are nice and browned. I also like to add a little bit of chopped fresh parsley
