Terrific recipe! Simple and quick to make, and delicious - loved the ginger. I used ready-to-eat bacon which made this even simpler. Thanks for sharing the recipe! -
p.s. I already posted my (rave) review, but I forgot to say what I did....<br/><br/>I mixed the ginger, onions and lemon juice, adding crushed garlic and a little e.v. olive oil, in a bowl, tossed in the scallops and marinated them for a few minutes while cooking the bacon. Then I threaded them onto short satay sticks (3 per stick) and grilled them on the bbq. Served on a lettuce leaf. <br/><br/>DH actually decided to pull out the stick and wrap them in the lettuce leaf and munch as a healthy wrap! Wonderful! -
Very good and quick and easy! Thanks for sharing! -
These were lovely chocolatl, we really enjoyed the addition of the ginger and green onions, to the bacon wrapped scallops. It brought a little something something to the game. A new depth. Quick and easy to make with excellent results. Made for the Witchin Kitchen ZWT7 tour. -
Incredible! Loved the ginger, which I think really gave a different spin on this. Unfortunately, my center cut bacon was a little short, so the halves were not large enough to wrap around the scallops. I will DEFINITELY be making these again! Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT7.
