Bacon-wrapped scallops
The two ingredients cook at completely different speeds, which is why the bacon is part-cooked first. Skip that and it is raw around a rubbery scallop.

Method
6 steps · 30 minutes
- Cook the bacon halfway first, until it has given up some fat but is still floppy enough to bend. Crisp bacon will not wrap.
- Take the small tough side muscle off each scallop and dry them thoroughly.
- Wrap half a slice around each and secure with a toothpick through the middle.
- Broil close to the element for 4 minutes, turn, and give them 3 more.
- Scallops are done the moment they turn opaque. Another minute and they tighten into something that squeaks, and there is no way back.
- Lemon at the table, and go easy on the salt. The bacon has already done most of it.
