1. Spicy Bacon-Wrapped Scallops | Ready in 25 minutes
Top tips: “Very nice and oh so quick. Here is a secret to a good sear on the scallops. Get your pan screaming hot – I used Grape Seed oil, as it has a high smoke point – place your wrapped scallops into the pan – don’t over crowd them – and DO NOT MOVE them. The temptation is to shake and move the scallops around but hands off! About 3 minutes, give them a flip and the same thing with the other side. Let them sear without moving them.” — Baking Nana
