Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 sea scallops
  • 6 slices bacon halved
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with a rack.
  2. Pat the scallops dry and wrap each in a half slice of bacon, securing with a toothpick.
  3. Arrange on the rack, brush with oil, and season with pepper.
  4. Bake 15 to 18 minutes until the bacon is crisp and scallops are opaque.
  5. Serve warm with lemon wedges.

Notes

Par-cook the bacon 3 minutes first so it crisps fully.
