Instructions
Preheat oven to 200°C.
Rinse your fresh scallops in cold water, and cut the bacon rashers in half.

Place on a baking tray. Drizzle coconut oil all over the skewers. Bake until the bacon is brown and crispy, about 6 minutes.
Serve with balsamic and a sprinkling of chopped parsley and lemon juice.
