Trader Joe's is making it easy to add a little surf and turf to your next holiday celebration with the debut of its new Uncured Bacon Wrapped Scallops.
The new Uncured Bacon Wrapped Scallops take the delicious taste of smoky bacon and pair it with buttery, succulent scallops. The new heat-and-eat hors d’oeuvre starts with carefully seared scallops and then carefully wraps each one in perfectly prepped bacon. The result is a perfectly portioned appetizer that can be cooked in either a conventional oven or air fryer in less than 20 minutes.
While the Uncured Bacon Wrapped Scallops are meant to be a low-effort appetizer option, this doesn't mean you can't enjoy them other ways. Pair them with steak for an elevated surf and turf meal or serve them over a green salad for a little extra protein.
