How to Make Bacon Wrapped Scallops
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Grease a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.
- In a shallow dish, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- In a separate shallow dish, whisk together 1 large egg and 1/4 cup milk.
- In a third shallow dish, place 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs.
- Prepare an assembly line with the flour mixture, egg mixture, and breadcrumbs. This makes breading the scallops much easier.
- Dredge each scallop in the flour mixture, then dip in the egg mixture, and finally coat thoroughly in the breadcrumbs.
- Wrap each breaded scallop with a half-slice of bacon, securing with a toothpick.
- Arrange the bacon-wrapped scallops in the prepared pie dish.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the scallops are cooked through.
- Serve immediately, warm, with tartar sauce or cocktail sauce.
