Bacon-wrapped Scallops

Ingredients

• 1 quart vegetable oil
• 1 cup teriyaki glaze
• ½ cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• ½ pound bacon
• 1 pound of scallops

Steps

1. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or other pot to 350 °F (180 °C), making sure that the pot is large enough that the oil doesn't fill it more than halfway.
2. Combine teriyaki glaze, soy sauce and sugar in a medium bowl.
3. Set aside.
4. Cut bacon strips in half lengthwise.
5. Wrap each scallop with one of these half strips of bacon, and secure by skewering with a wooden toothpick.
6. Working in batches so as not to crowd the fryer, fry the scallops until golden brown, about 4 minutes.
7. Remove from oil, drain briefly and toss in the soy-teriyaki sauce.
8. Serve immediately.
