Seared Scallops with Grilled Cheese and Bacon

 
  

Oh how I love my late night grilled cheese. What do I love with my grilled cheese? Bacon! What do I love more than grilled cheese and bacon? Scallops! So why not put them all together in a delicious savory mouthful?

We got these super fresh u10 scallops at Taro's on Sheppard.

Ingredients:
  • 1  tablespoon  all-purpose flour
  • salt to taste
  • 1/2  teaspoon  dried marjoram
  • 4 large sea scallops
  • 2  teaspoons  olive oil
  • 1/4 cup  dry white wine
  • 1/2  tablespoon  balsamic vinegar
  • 2 slices of white or whole wheat bread
  • 3 slices of chopped up bacon
  • 1/2 cup of grated cheddar


Directions:

Combine first 3 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag; add scallops. Seal bag, and shake to coat.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add scallops; cook 3 minutes on each side or until done. Remove from pan; keep warm.

Add wine and vinegar to pan; cook 3 minutes or until slightly thick, stirring with a whisk. Stir in scallops; remove from heat. 

Grill bacon and chop into pieces then add to the cheese between the slices of bread.

Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet or grill and when melted add the sandwich. Gently press down with a spatula once or twice during the grilling.

When one side is golden, add the remaining tablespoon of butter, turn the sandwich over, and brown.

Cut the grilled cheese in 4 pieces.

Assemble and enjoy!
