Seared Scallop BLT Mini-Sandwiches

IMG_20120706_191542

Ah, the noble scallop – the tastiest brainless creature in the ocean. It sits in its clam-like shell at the bottom of the sea, just waiting to be scooped up and devoured. I’ve always loved scallops, and decided to make a meal of them for dinner. “But how to prepare them?” I asked myself. Fried? Baked? Maybe a nice scampi? Hell no!

What you see here instead are bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwiches, with an obvious twist – that’s not bread, those are sea scallops, seared and sliced in half. It’s a pretty labor intensive recipe with a lot of different steps, but it’s definitely a unique way to eat scallops, and well worth the effort. So follow along and get ready to experience scallops like never before!
