Bacon Wrapped Scallops

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup mayonnaise

  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce

  • 1 pound bay scallops (about 36 small scallops)

  • 1 pinch coarse salt

  • 1 pinch freshly cracked black pepper

  • 12 slices bacon, cut into thirds  

  • olive oil cooking spray

Directions:

  1. Step Mix mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce together in a small bowl. Refrigerate Sriracha mayo until ready to serve.

  2. Using the “Manual” option, set your Yedi Air Fryer Oven to 390 degrees F and your timer to 7 minutes.

  3. Spread scallops out onto a plate or cutting board and blot dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper. Wrap each scallop with 1/3 slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick.

  4. Split the bacon-wrapped scallops into 2 batches and place each batch on a Mesh Tray.

  5. Cook in the air fryer for 7 minutes. Check for doneness; scallops should be opaque and bacon should be crispy. Cook 1 to 2 minutes longer, if necessary, checking every minute. Remove scallops carefully with tongs and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil from the bacon. Serve with Sriracha mayo.
