Instructions

  • Pat scallops dry with a paper towel. 
  • In a large pan, start to crisp bacon. Cook bacon until golden brown - but still soft and pliable. 
  • In a small bowl, mix salt, pepper, and garlic and then sprinkle generously over scallops. 
  • Wrap each scallop with 1/2 bacon strip and secure by pushing a toothpick through the bacon and scallop. 
  • In another small bowl, mix brown sugar and ginger. 
  • Sprinkle brown sugar and ginger mixture all over scallop, but reserve much of the sugar and gigner to sprinkle after the scallops flip once. 
  • Heat butter in large pan until foamy and melted. 
  • Add scallops to pan and cook on medium high heat. Flip after 5-6 minutes, sprinkle with more sugar and ginger, and continue repeating steps until scallops are cooked. 
  • Serve immediately.
