1
Prepare the Scallops
Rinse the sea scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
2
Wrap the Scallops
Take one slice of bacon and wrap it around each scallop. Secure the ends with a toothpick if necessary.
3
Prepare the Cheese Mixture
In a small bowl, combine the fresh cheese, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Mix well until creamy.
4
Cook the Wrapped Scallops
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the wrapped scallops and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the bacon is crispy and the scallops are cooked through.
5
Add Cheese
In the last minute of cooking, spoon the cheese mixture over the scallops and cover the skillet with a lid to allow the cheese to melt.
6
Serve
Remove the scallops from the skillet and serve immediately, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
