Partially precooking the bacon on the side burner will ensure a crispier texture.

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 lb. scallops
• 1/2 lb. bacon
• lemon wedges

Steps:

• Combine oil, lemon juice, and pepper in a large measuring cup. Add scallops and marinate 30-60 minutes.
• Cut the bacon lengthwise, and across. Wrap the bacon around the marinated scallops, and secure with a toothpick.
• Preheat the barbecue, and brush the cooking grids with vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Grill on HIGH 5-7 minutes, turning to cook evenly.
