Bacon Wrapped Grilled Scallops

I kept waiting for scallops to go on sale in my local supermarket.  Finally!!!!!  This is an excellent dish as either an entrĂ©e or an appetizer.  Bacon does make everything better!  The combo of bacon, horseradish and scallops is delicious!  To make this you will need:
  • 6 slices bacon
  • 12  sea scallops
  • Horseradish
  • Terryaki Sauce
  • 4  bamboo skewers, soaked in warm water for about 30 minutes
  • Freshly ground black pepper

  •  
    1.)  Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
    2.)  Cut the bacon in half, dab with horseradish.  Wrap each scallop in 1 piece of the bacon, securing it through the center with a bamboo skewer. Put 3 scallops on each skewer.  Brush each skewer with terrayki sauce.
    3.)  When the grill is hot, brush the grates lightly with oil, then place the scallops on the grill and cook, turning frequently, until just cooked through about 7 minutes total. Transfer to a platter and sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
