Bacon Wrapped Scallops

Ingredients:
2 pounds large scallops
8 slices of bacon
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
black pepper to taste
8 wooden skewers

Preparation:

Soak wooden skewers in water for an hour before using. Combine vinegar, oil, and black pepper in a medium bowl. Add scallops to mixture and toss to coat. Cover and allow to sit for 5 to 10 minutes at room temperature. Preheat grill for medium-high heat. Cut bacon into thirds. Wrap a piece of bacon around each scallop and thread onto skewers. There should be 3-4 scallops per skewer. Place on a lightly oiled grill rack and cook for 3 minutes per side. When the scallop is opaque in color, remove from grill and serve.
