Bacon Wrapped Scallops
Recipe courtesy of Ree Drummond
Level: Easy
Total: 55 min (includes cooling time)
Active: 30 min
Yield: 20 small bites

Ingredients

10 slices bacon, halved crosswise
20 small scallops
4 tablespoons salted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon crushed red chile flakes
2 tablespoons honey
1 lime, juiced
Thinly sliced green onions, for serving

Directions

Special equipment: toothpicks

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Bake the bacon on a foil-lined tray for 20 to 25 minutes to par-cook. Remove and set aside to cool for 3 to 5 minutes.

Wrap each scallop with half piece of bacon, securing each with a toothpick. In a large skillet on high heat, sear the scallops until slightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side, then remove to a platter to rest.

In the same skillet, add the butter, garlic, chile flakes, honey and lime juice. Reduce the mixture until it has thickened, 1 to 2 minutes, then spoon over the scallops. Garnish with the green onions and serve.

Ree Drummond’s Bacon Wrapped Scallops | The Pioneer Woman | Food Network

the third party bite I’m going to show you is something I don’t have very often and they’re a little bit of a luxury bacon wrapped scallops it’s hard for me to pick a favorite appetizer that I’m making today but I think this one would be it these are amazing I’m just wrapping the last scallop in a piece of bacon and I actually gave the bacon a head start I baked it in the oven at 350 for about2 25 minutes and that helped some of the fat to render and this way since the scallops don’t take very long to cook the bacon won’t be undercooked by the time the scallops are cooked I thought this through guys so I’m just securing with a toothpick and they look fantastic now sometimes I’ll cook these in the oven but I decided to cook them in a skillet this time so I have a big iron skillet that’s preheated I’m going to cook all of these until the scallops are cooked through and then I’ll take them out and make a sauce so I’ll do them in two batches and first put tin into a large Skillet on high heat I’ll sear them for 3 minutes moving them around so they don’t stick and keep checking to see if they’re done then I’ll turn them over keep them moving and after a couple of minutes take them out onto a sheet pan then I’ll cook the rest the oil temperature has change so I’ll do this slightly differently and keep turning them for about 5 minutes until they’re done then I’ll take them out to join the others on the sheet pan if you think those bacon wrapped scallops look good wait till you see them and taste them with the buttery spicy lime sauce it is incredible I’m just going to add some butter to the same Skillet and the Skillet’s really hot so it’s going to melt in no time and it’s basically picking up all of that bacon flavor and scallop flavor all right and then I’m going to add some garlic some crushed red pepper flakes that’s where the spice comes in and then a little squeeze of honey and the juice of a lime I’ve got it all ready to go oo I love that sound that is so pleasing all right it’s just going to take about a minute for this to fix Chien so while it does I’m going to get those scallops on a platter all right I told you this sauce would thicken while I got the scallops on a platter so I want you to look at this how lovely that looks every single element is here for a reason including me okay I’m going to kind of push the sauce over to one side of the pan I was going to to spoon the sauce over each scallop but that’s way too meticulous and careful for my personality I’d rather pour plus I am a robust country woman I can Wrangle an iron skillet so I’ll just pour this beautiful sauce they don’t need to be totally dowed with the sauce just a little kind of glaze oh how beautimus when I get excited about food I make up words is beamus a word I don’t know all right to garnish I just have some sliced green onions you could do chives you could do parsley you could do DIC fresh jalapenos if you’re feeling dangerous and spicy all right good to go well friends that is 20 bacon WRA scallops correction that is 19 and wrap scallops all ready to go pretend you didn’t see that
