Breaded Bacon-Wrapped Scallops image

My mother used to make these years ago and kept warm on a warming tray (the kind that is plugged into the wall)and my dh really liked them, so I was glad when I came across this recipe for them in an old Bon Appetit (April 1982)

Time 40m

Yield 21 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
21 sea scallops
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
1 cup breadcrumbs
7 slices bacon, strips cut into thirds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400-degrees F.
  • Grease a pie dish and set aside.
  • In a pie dish combine first 5 ingredients (flour - garlic powder).
  • In a seperate pie dish or bowl mix egg and milk together.
  • In a third pie dish place bread crumbs.
  • If set up assembly line fashion - this makes a really easy process to get the scallops ready - I use disposable pie tins for this (that come with frozen prepared pie crusts).
  • Roll scallops in flour mixture and then dip in milk/egg mixture and finally into the breadcrumbs.
  • Wrap each scallops with bacon, securing with toothpick and then transfer to prepared greased pie dish.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes.
  • Serve warm (see description above for my mother's method) with tartar sauce or cocktail sauce.
