Bacon Wrapped Scallops

Ingredients:

12 slices bacon, slightly cooked and cut in half

3 tablespoons minced scallions

1/2 cup bourbon

1/2 cup maple syrup

1 tablespoon soy sauce

24 large sea scallops (about 1 1/2 pounds)

Cooking Spray Toothpicks

Directions:

In a bowl, combine the green onions, bourbon, maple syrup and soy sauce.  Place scallops in half of the marinade mixture, reserve the other half of the marinade.  Preheat oven broiler, spray a broiler pan.

After about 15 minutes in marinade, wrap a piece of cut bacon around each scallop.  Secure with a toothpick.  Broil for 8 minutes or until the bacon is crisp and the scallops are opaque, occasionally basting with the remaining marinade.
