Bacon-Wrapped Scallops With Maple Syrup - cooking recipe

Ingredients

20 scallops, roe removed
10 slices streaky bacon
8 tablespoons maple syrup
4 wooden skewers, about 10cm long, soaked in water
salt and pepper, to season

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425\u00b0F
Season the scallops lightly with salt and pepper. Cut the bacon in half crosswise. Wrap each scallop in a piece of bacon, string 5 of them onto each skewer and drizzle with half the maple syrup.
Place the scallops on a baking tray, and cook in the oven for 8-10 minutes, turning once, until the scallops are opaque and the bacon is cooked.
Drizzle with remaining syrup and freshly ground black pepper and serve.
