Ingredients
- 5 slices bacon
- 2 pounds scallops
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 green onions, sliced 
 
Easy enough to whip up quickly but elegant enough to entertain with. The flavor of the scallops
with the bacon and green onions is perfect.
 
Directions
In a medium skillet, fry bacon until crisp. Place on paper towels to drain. Chop into small pieces
and set aside.

In the same skillet, discard all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings. Add


1

oil and heat over medium-high heat.

Season scallops with salt and pepper. Sear scallops in
skillet for 2 minutes on each side until caramelized and opaque. Be sure not to over crowd the
pan; you may have to do in 2 batches.

To serve, top with bacon and onions.
