Broiled Scallops & Bacon Hors D'oeuvres Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 lb sea scallops
1/3 bacon
Recipe Preparation
Recipe by: Felicia Pickering Remove any tough
cartilage from the sides of the scallops, wipe off any bits of shell,
and pat them dry. In a large frying pan, partially cook bacon until
it has released its fat but is still limp and flexible; remove it to
brown paper or paper towels and drain it well. Cut the bacon pieces
in halves or thirds so that they are just long enough to wrap around
a scallop with a slight overlap. Wrap each scallop with a piece of
bacon and secure the wrap with a toothpick. Place the wrapped
scallops on a rack that is set in a baking pan and cook under a
preheated broiler, turning once, just until the bacon is crisp and
the scallops are opaque. Serve immediately.
Variations: Roll the scallops in pancetta or prosciutto instead of
bacon. Add something crunchy - a length of scallion or a thin slice
of kohlrabi - next to the scallop before rolling it in the bacon.
Substitute drained water chestnuts for one-third of the scallops
Servings: 1

Food Tips of the Week
A few tips on healthy eatingIn planning a diet, the important thing is to also endeavour to restrict your ingestion of refined carbohydrates, salt and fats.
The argument against low carbohydrate diets
Its extremely popular, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Although there is considerable evidence that suggests that reduced carbohydrate diets may help reduce weight, some of this strong evidence has caused controversy between nutrition gurus, and their safety record has been challenged
Moreover, it has been suggested that the kidneys may be given too much work to do and that the related change in blood acid levels can result in bone damage, but some of the studies trying to test the theory have struggled to find any evidence of damage to the kidneys or bone damage.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, onions and welsh onion)
The onion family is rich in allyl sulfides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is very little scientific evidence obtainable, allyl sulphides are also thought to help with antiinflammatory effect, high blood pressure and diabetes.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also low in calories, so should be a part of every diet system.
