• GARNISH:.
• Finely chop the parsley and lemon zest and mix together. Add the olive oil and lemon juice.
• Spray a grill tray generously with olive oil.
• Place the scallops on the grill tray 1-2 inches apart and grill over direct medium heat until just opaque in the center, about 8 minutes, turning once halfway through grilling time. Treat them gently when turning.
• Remove from the grill, place a little of the garnish onto each scallop and serve warm.

• Wrap each scallops with bacon, securing with toothpick and then transfer to prepared greased pie dish.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes.
