Category: Seafood and Fish - Grilled
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1-1/2 cups orange juice
2 (2-lb) pkg sea scallops
24 slices bacon
3/4 cup bottled citrus-herb dry rub
12 (10- to 12-inch) wooden skewers*

Place orange juice in a large bowl. Remove the strip of muscle from each scallop. Place scallops in juice; let stand 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook bacon in large skillet over medium heat 5 minutes or until just beginning to crisp but still soft. Drain on paper towels.

Place citrus rub in a shallow dish. Remove scallops from juice; drain. Roll the edge of each scallop in citrus rub and wrap with bacon slice, overlapping the ends slightly. Thread 4 bacon-wrapped scallops onto each skewer. Place 4 skewers in each of 3 containers with tight-fitting covers. Chill until ready to serve.

When ready to finish and serve this dish, preheat grill to medium high (350 to 400). Place skewers on grill. Grill 4 to 6 minutes until scallops are opaque in the center and feel somewhat firm, turning several times. Serves 12

*Soak wooden skewers in water at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.

Do not use thick sliced bacon. Regular bacon will cook faster and scallops will get too done waiting on thick bacon to cook. Wrap the scallops with the bacon and skewer them. I sprinkle on my favor
