Topic: Bacon Wrapped Scallops

[Skhilled (OP)]

I bought some dry sea scallops yesterday to quench my craving for some...bought da big ones!  2 lbs. for $17 per lb.! 

So, been looking up recipes and found these 2 and will try to make at least one of them, if not both:

I'll let ya know later how they came out. I do plan on following the directions to par-bake the bacon first so the scallops do not dry out.

I decided on the 2nd recipe. Half of the scallops are marinating and I just par-baked the bacon. If I would have thought better I would have only got 1lb. of scallops. I did not realize I needed to cut them in half. There's 12 to a lb. so now there's 24!

Maybe I'll freeze the 2nd lb. for a later use...like my fav, beer batter fried scallops!

Scallops are done and everybody loves them...no matter how expensive they are. Maybe they will help pay for them next time.

Or, you could just mail them to me!

The ice needed to keep them fresh would probably cost more than postage itself. LOL
