Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Scallops

    Pat the scallops dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Wrap the Scallops

    Take each scallop and wrap it with a slice of bacon. Secure the bacon with a toothpick if necessary.

  3. 3

    Sear the Scallops

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the bacon-wrapped scallops to the skillet and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bacon is crispy and the scallops are opaque.

  4. 4

    Glaze with Maple Syrup

    Reduce the heat to low and drizzle the Maine maple syrup over the scallops. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the syrup to caramelize slightly.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from heat, serve immediately, and enjoy your maple bacon scallops!
