Ingredients

12 Brussels sprouts trimmed and quartered lengthwise

4 strips bacon

1-1/2 teaspoons salt divided

1-1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper divided

12 sea scallops

1/4 cup cornstarch

2 teaspoons butter

2 teaspoons olive oil

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons dry white wine

2 tablespoons water

Lemon wedges and extra virgin olive oil for serving

Directions

Cook sprouts in a large saucepan of salted water until barely tender.

Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.

Meanwhile put bacon in a frying pan over medium heat.

Cook turning occasionally until crisp then drain on paper towels.

Pour off all but 2 teaspoons rendered bacon fat.

Return frying pan to medium high heat.

Add sprouts and sauté until edges are golden about 5 minutes.

Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper then remove from heat.

Pat scallops dry with paper towels.

Mix cornstarch on a plate with remaining salt and pepper.

Roll scallops in cornstarch mixture to coat lightly.

Melt butter with olive oil in a frying pan over medium high heat.

Add scallops and sear for 3 minutes then turn and sear second side for 1 minute.

Add lemon juice, wine and 2 tablespoons water then stir to scrape up any browned bits.

Cover and return heat to low then cook until scallops are just opaque about 3 minutes.

Divide sprouts among 4 bowls.

Top each serving with 3 scallops and drizzle with pan juices.

Crumble bacon and sprinkle over sprouts then drizzle with lemon juice and serve hot.
