Ingredients

16 sea scallops, 3/4 to 1 inch thick

1 tsp olive oil

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper

16 very thin slices pancetta

4 tsp. finely ground bread crumbs

4 wooden skewers, soaked in water 30 min.

16 tiny yellow or red cherry tomatoes

Directions

Mix scallops with 1 tsp. olive oil, salt & pepper gently using your hands or a rubber spatula. Wrap pancetta slice around edges of scallops; arrange in single layer on a baking sheet, spacing at least 1 inch apart. Sprinkle tops with bread crumbs. Thread 4 scallops on each skewer and broil 4-6 inches from heat source for 4-6 minutes or until sides feel springy firm when gently squeed and bread crumbs are lightly browned. Remove from oven.

Serve scallops and tomatoes over bed of mixed greens, drizzled with your favorite vinaigrette.

You beat me to the punch! I'm making these tonight and I was going to tout it as my own special creation. I'll tell how it goes.

Delicious! But I have some advice for everyone; Clean the scallops very well. I mean rinse, rub, rinse again, and repeat. Those sea scallops are sandy, and chewing on grit is not very romantic. Also I will use somewhat thicker panchetta on the next go. The thin stuff is kinda' hard to work with. All told a very tasty dish.
