Bacon Broiled Scallops Recipe
Ingredients
24 large sea scallops
12 slices bacon
Salt
Seasoned pepper
Watercress sprigs for garnish
1 lemon, cut into wedges, for garnish
Directions
1. Rinse scallops with running cold water to remove sand from crevices. Pat dry with paper towels.
2. Preheat broiler if manufacturer directs.
3. Cut each bacon slice crosswise in half; wrap each half around a scallop, securing it with a toothpick. Sprinkle scallops lightly with salt and seasoned pepper.
4. On rack in broiling pan, place scallops, with bacon facing the heating element. Broil 8 to 10 minutes, turning scallops frequently so bacon will brown evenly, until scallops turn opaque throughout.
5. Remove toothpicks. Arrange bacon-wrapped scallops on platter. Garnish with watercress and lemon wedges.
