  • 1 clove garlic minced, optional
  • ½ teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
  • salt and black pepper to taste
Directions :
  1. Place short wooden skewers in water to soak for 30 minutes.
  2. Place bacon in a frying pan and cook about 3-4 minute per side or until just slightly cooked and some of the fat has rendered out. Bacon should not be crisp.
  3. Pat the scallops dry with paper towel and season with salt & pepper to taste.
  4. Wrap bacon around the scallops and thread 2 to 3 scallops onto each skewer leaving a little bit of space between each scallop.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with garlic, parsley, and lemon pepper. Brush over scallops.
  6. Place an oven rack 6-inches from the broiler and Preheat the broiler to high heat.
  7. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  8. Place the scallops on the prepared pan and broil for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping over after 3 minutes. Cook just until bacon is crisp and scallops are cooked through, do not overcook.
