  Good if Cooked

  Rated: 3 stars out of 5

  I am a culinary student and decided to make this as an appitizer for my final the scallops were cooked perfectly but the... bacon was raw i would suggest to partially cook the bacon then put it together and cook it. Overall the flavors were good and it was nicely seasoned. I did allow the scallop to marinate longer then the suggested time. I would make again.Read more

  Unpleasant meal and waste of scallops

  Rated: 1 stars out of 5

  Despite some of the warnings in the reviews, we proceeded to make this because it looked so good on TV. I cooked the bacon... for 2 minutes in the microwave, so it was partially done, but still limber enough to wrap around the scallops. We followed the remainder of the recipe, but were disappointed! The bacon was simply just not done. Also the balsamic marinade was not a good pair with the scallops. I absolutely love scallops, bacon and balsamic vinegar.... but this recipe does not do any of them justice. Definitely won't be making this again... Read more

  Sorry Rachael

  We love most of your recipes however this one was a disappointment. The bacon did not crisp up and was almost raw, we could... not eat it. Perhaps it would work if you par cooked the bacon to the point where it would still be flexible enough to wrap the scallops and water chestnuts.. Also, despite the marinade the scallops were bland.Read more

  Great hors d'oeuvre

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I just had a small dinner party and served these with a nice, dry white wine for an hors d'oeuvre. The guests raved, asked... for the recipe, had seconds, and were disappointed when there weren't enough for thirds! Splenda brown sugar and powdered ginger (both of which I already had on hand) worked fine. I also want to try this with shrimp instead of scallops, and I might cut my bacon strips into thirds instead of halves. I really liked this recipe, and will definitely keep it in my repertoire.Read more

  Nice flavor.

  Big hit at my party. I couldn't find the peppered bacon, so I used Maple.
