Scallop And Bacon Kabobs Recipes

Steps:

• Soak skewers in bowl of water. Drain. Wrap 1/2 slice bacon around scallop and place on skewer. In small bowl combine honey, vinegar, mustard and olive oil. Brush onto scallops and bacon. Place on baking pan and broil for 3-4 minutes per side or until crispy. Serve.

Steps:

• Place the scallops, pineapple pieces, and vegetables in a large shallow container. Combine the remaining ingredients except the bacon. Stir well and pour the mixture over the scallops. Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, stirring frequently.
• Cook the bacon until limp but not browned. Drain and set aside.
• Remove the scallops, pineapple and vegetables from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Alternate with the bacon on the skewers. (If using wooden skewers, soak in water for at least an hour).
• Grill the kabobs over hot coals for 10 to 12 minutes (basting frequently), or until the bacon is crisp. Turn and baste frequently with the marinade.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place the bacon strips on the parchment paper and bake until just beginning to get golden around the edges but still very pliable, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
• Season the scallops on all sides with the Essence and salt. Wrap each scallop in 1 piece of the bacon, securing it through the center with a bamboo skewer. Repeat with the remaining scallops.
• When the grill is hot, brush the grates lightly with oil, then place the scallops on the grill and cook, turning frequently, until just cooked through about 7 minutes total. Transfer to a platter and sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper to taste. Garnish each scallop with a dab of the butter and serve immediately.
