Ingredients

  • 12 piece large scallops, patted dry
  • 6 slice streaky bacon, halved
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 1 piece lemon, cut into wedges
  • 1 tbsp parsley, chopped

Steps

  1. Pat the scallops completely dry, wrap each one in a half slice of streaky bacon and secure it with a cocktail stick.
  2. Brush the parcels lightly with olive oil and season them with smoked paprika and black pepper.
  3. Stand them in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space around each one so the bacon crisps.
  4. Cook at 200°C for 9 minutes, turning them halfway, until the bacon is crisp and the scallops are just opaque.
  5. Scatter with parsley and serve hot with lemon wedges.
