Although the rich seafood tidbits look complicated, they're actually easy to assemble and cook. The dipping sauce, with its hints of mustard and maple syrup, complements the scallops nicely. It's a unique appetizer.

SERVINGS: 5

CATEGORY: Appetizer

METHOD: Baked

TIME: Prep: 25 min. Bake: 20 min.

Ingredients:

  • 10 bacon strips
  • 10 large sea scallops
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Directions:

Place bacon in an ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 7-10 minutes or until partially cooked and lightly browned. Drain on paper towels.
