Step-by-step guide to making this recipe
1

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or other pot to 350 °F (180 °C), making sure that the pot is large enough that the oil doesn't fill it more than halfway.

2

Combine teriyaki glaze, soy sauce and sugar in a medium bowl. Set aside.

3

Cut bacon strips in half lengthwise.

4

Wrap each scallop with one of these half strips of bacon, and secure by skewering with a wooden toothpick.

5

Working in batches so as not to crowd the fryer, fry the scallops until golden brown, about 4 minutes.

4 minutes

6

Remove from oil, drain briefly and toss in the soy-teriyaki sauce.

7

Serve immediately.

Notes
  • Do not eat the toothpick!
