Bacon-Wrapped Scallop Sliders

Write a Review
This delicious surf and turf recipe combines two luscious delights: sea scallops and bacon. It is also wonderfully child-friendly, making it a great choice to serve a mixed generation group! Recipe makes 16 sliders. We suggest using mayonnaise made with an oil low in omega-6 fats such as olive oil, macadamia nut oil, canola oil or high oleic sunflower oil.

Ingredients
16 large Vital Choice sea scallops
1/8 cup Vital Choice organic extra virgin olive oil
16 Vital Choice pork bacon slices, fully-cooked but not crisp
2 cups mayonnaise
4 teaspoons pimenton (smoked paprika)
5 medium sliced red onions (3 cups)
1/8 cup Vital Choice organic red balsamic vinegar
16 mini-hamburger buns (whole wheat), split
16 small (3-inch) lettuce leaves
Preparation
1.  Blend mayonnaise and pimenton in a bowl; set aside.
2.  Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large pan. Stir in onions; cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add balsamic vinegar and simmer one minute. Remove from heat and keep warm.
3.  Wrap each scallop with a cooked bacon slice. Grill or sauté scallops for 2 to 3 minutes per side, cooking just until scallops are opaque and bacon is crisp.
4.  Place buns on grill and lightly toast. To serve, spread 1 tablespoon mayonnaise on cut side of each bun. Place about 2 tablespoons onions on the bun bottoms, top with a bacon-wrapped scallop and lettuce leaf, then close with bun tops.
