Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.




2 tablespoons bourbon
3 tablespoons minced green onions
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
24 large scallops
12 slices bacon, cut in half
Combine the bourbon, onions, maple syrup, soy sauce, mustard, pepper, and scallops in a bowl or other container. Mix gently to combine and coat the scallops in the bourbon sauce. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Preheat the broiler.
Remove the scallops from the bourbon sauce, reserving the sauce.
Wrap one piece of bacon around each scallop. Thread the wrapped scallops on skewers (or secure with a toothpick). Place the scallops on a broiler pan. Place in the oven and broil for 7-8 minutes, basting with the reserved marinade every few minutes, until the bacon is crisp and the scallops are opaque and cooked through.
Serve hot.

Great recipe! Easy to make and delicious. I actually used turkey bacon. The bourbon really adds a great flavor to the dish.
