This recipe has potential! These were good, but we needed to cook them longer for the bacon to be done to our liking. Also, perhaps our scallops were smaller sea scallops, but we only used about a third of a slice of bacon around each scallop and that was plenty. Next time I'll also use leaner bacon than what I had on hand. I probably would also space them apart on the skewers somewhat so that the bacon cooks more. Don't take all those suggestions to mean we didn't like them; we'll definitely make them again with some adjustments!
