Ingredients
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1 pound sea scallops
6-7 pieces of bacon
Step by step
Preheat your KitchenAid® Convection Digital Countertop Oven to broil at 450°F. Line your multipurpose pan with aluminum foil.
Cut each piece of bacon in half. Wrap each scallop with one half-piece of bacon. Press the bacon-wrapped scallop into the brown sugar, fully coating the outside of the bacon. Secure the bacon in place with a toothpick. Place the scallops onto the multipurpose pan.
Cook scallops under the broiler for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is cooked through. Turn the scallops once in the middle of cooking.
To make the dipping sauce, combine the soy sauce, light brown sugar, garlic and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 10-15 minutes until lightly thickened. Don’t boil. Sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
Serve scallops warm with the dipping sauce.
