Bacon Wrapped Scallops

Ingredients:

• 10 sea scallops
• 10 slices bacon (thin ones)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 lemon, cut into wedges

Directions:

Arrange bacon in large skillet and cook over medium high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly browned but still pliable, about 5 minutes. Drain the bacon on paper towels.

Wrap each slice of bacon around one scallop and secure with a toothpick.

Heat olive oil in a clean skillet over medium heat. Sear scallops until golden brown and bacon is crisp, 3-4 minutes on each side. Squeeze lemon over scallops.  Serve immediately.

Tip: If you want a little spicy, add Cajun seasoning before browning scallops.
