What’s not to love about a meaty, sweet sea scallop glazed in teriyaki and wrapped incrispy bacon?

Or that it takes about 15 minutes to prepare?

A greatappetizer for parties, or even a superb main event at dinner paired with a tangy salad.

Buy a few to have on hand next time you have a craving for some teriyaki shrimp!
