How to Make Barbecued Bacon And Scallop Brochettes
- Wash and pat dry 1 pound of large sea scallops. Place them in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of dill seeds, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Gently toss the scallops to coat in the marinade. Let them marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature, stirring occasionally.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove the scallops from the marinade, reserving the marinade in a small bowl.
- Cut 8 slices of bacon in half. Wrap each of 8 scallops with a half slice of bacon, securing it with a toothpick if needed.
- Thread 4 plain scallops and 4 bacon-wrapped scallops alternately onto 4 skewers.
- Brush the skewers generously with the reserved marinade. Grill for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and the scallops are opaque and cooked through.
- Remove from grill, let rest for a minute, and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh dill sprigs, if desired.
