Step by Step Method
NOTE: Wooden/Bamboo skewers, will burn easily over a hot grill. Soak them in warm water for 15 to 30 minutes before threading this ensures they will not cook or burn along with the food
Step 1
In a bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients to make a marinade.
Step 2
Rinse and clean the scallops and stir into the marinade; leave scallops in marinade for 1 1/2 hours.
Step 3
Drain the scallops from the marinade and wrap each scallop in a piece of bacon and thread onto skewers ~ If preferred cut bacon into suitable pieces, depending on the size of the scallops, and wrap them around the scallop.
Step 4
Grill for 5-7 minutes.
Step 5
The bacon should be crisp, so turn the scallops once or twice during cooking and be careful not to overcook.
Tips
- 12 skewers pre soaked in warm water.
