Bacon Wrapped Scallops - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    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
Preparation
    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.
