Instructions
Shrimp or Scallop Wraps
Preheat your Wolf Oven to Convection Mode 350°F. Ensure a rack is set to position 3.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Cut the bacon into thirds and lay the pieces on a cutting board.
Place the shrimp or scallops in a bowl and season with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Wrap each scallop or shrimp with one piece of bacon. (Wrap a maximum of two times around; if the bacon wraps more than twice, trim it down.) Secure the bacon in place with a toothpick.
Place the wrapped shrimp or scallops on the prepared baking sheet and bake on convection for 30 minutes at 350°F.
Once done, remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Sweet Bacon Wraps
In a small mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Mix thoroughly.
Cut the bacon in half to create 30 pieces. Add 5 pieces of bacon at a time to the brown sugar mixture, tossing to coat evenly.
Lay out the coated bacon pieces and roll each into a cylinder shape. Secure with a toothpick to hold the roll together.
Place the bacon rolls on the prepared baking sheet and bake on convection for 30 minutes at 350°F.
Once done, remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
