RECIPE OF THE WEEK
Bacon Wrapped Scallops
from DinnerattheZoo- Sara
Featuring Cambridge Creek Ranch's bacon.
​
This recipe calls for scallops, bacon, maple syrup, garlic powder, soy sauce, salt and pepper. That’s all there is to it! Each scallop is wrapped in half a slice of bacon and then secured with a toothpick. The remaining ingredients are mixed together to form a sweet and savory glaze that gets brushed over the scallops as they cook. Add a sprinkle of herbs, then serve and enjoy.
*Choose the largest scallops that you can afford. Larger scallops are easier to wrap with bacon and they won’t overcook as the bacon crisps up.
