SCALLOPS- YUM!

I love scallops!  When I saw them on special at the grocery store I had to get some.  Here's a quick and easy recipe I whipped up today that has only 5 ingredients - Enjoy!

Scallops For Two

Ingredients:
8 oz. jumbo sea scallops
8 oz. broccoli tenders, trimmed and cut in thirds
A large handful of grape tomatoes
3 slices uncured bacon, chopped
2 garlic cloves

Directions:  Heat large skillet over med-hi heat.  Add bacon and saute until halfway cooked, about 3 minutes.  Add broccoli tenders, cook, stirring occasionally for 4 minutes.  Add tomatoes and garlic.  Let cook another 3 minutes.  Push broccoli and tomato mixture to the sides and place scallops in the middle.  Cook for 2 minutes or until they are opaque halfway through.  Add 1-2 Tb. water to deglaze the bottom of the skillet. Turn over scallops and cook for about 2-3 more minutes, until cooked through.  Serve immediately.
