Time 26m

Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 jumbo raw peeled deveined shrimp, 16 to 20 count per pound
12 large sea scallops, trimmed and well drained
1 lime, juiced and zested
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon grill seasoning or coarse salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
12 slices center cut or applewood smoked bacon, cut in 1/2
Toothpicks
3 scallions, very thinly sliced on an angle

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Place shrimp and scallops in a shallow dish or bowl. Dress seafood with lime juice and zest, a generous drizzle of sesame oil, grill seasoning and hot pepper flakes. Wrap each shrimp and scallop with a half slice of bacon. Wrap each shrimp working from head to tail, pulling bacon snuggly around the shrimp. Wrap the bacon around the outside of each scallop. Fasten bacon in place as necessary with picks.
  • Arrange the shrimp and scallops on a slotted baking pan, such as a broiler pan, to allow draining while bacon crisps. Bake shrimp and scallops 10 to 14 minutes, until shrimp is pink and curled, scallops are opaque and bacon is crisp. Shrimps may finish before the scallops.

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 jumbo raw shrimp - (16/20 count) peeled, deveined
12 large sea scallops trimmed, and well drained
1 lime juiced, zested
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon grill seasoning (or coarse salt and black pepper)
1 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
12 slices center-cut or applewood smoked bacon cut in halves
Toothpicks as needed
3 scallions very thinly sliced
on an angle

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place shrimp and scallops in a shallow dish or bowl. Dress seafood with lime juice and zest, a generous drizzle of sesame oil, grill seasoning and hot pepper flakes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the seafood cooks evenly, choose shrimp and scallops that are about the same size.
  • If you're using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent them from burning.
  • Don't overcook the seafood. Shrimp and scallops are both very delicate and can easily become tough if cooked for too long.
  • Serve the bacon-wrapped shrimp and scallops immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
