Ingredients

1/2 pound scallops, large

6 slices bacon, reduced sodium

4 ounces water chestnuts, sliced

3 tablespoons soy sauce, low sodium

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon garlic, bottled minced

1 teaspoon sesame oil, dark

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil for easier clean up. Place soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic and brown sugar in a medium size bowl and mix. Cut scallops in half and place in soy mixture. Toss to coat scallops and set aside to marinate for a few minutes. Cut bacon strips in half crosswise. Place 2 slices of water chestnut stacked in the center of each bacon strip. Place a scallop halve on top, wrap bacon around the scallop and secure with a toothpick. Place on baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Turn scallops over and bake for about 5 to 7 more minutes until bacon is crisp and scallops are cooked through.
