Air Fryer Bacon-Wrapped Scallops With Sriracha Mayo

Do i need to spray oil on the air fryer basket?

Recipe Summary Air Fryer Bacon-Wrapped Scallops With Sriracha Mayo

This delicious appetizer is prepared quickly and easily in the air fryer and served with a spicy Sriracha mayo dipping sauce. I use the smaller bay scallops for this. If you are using jumbo scallops it will require a longer cooking time and longer strips of bacon.

Ingredients | Pork Loin Recipes Air Fryer

½ cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce

1 pound bay scallops (about 36 small scallops)

1 pinch coarse salt

1 pinch freshly cracked black pepper

12 slices bacon, cut into thirds

1 serving olive oil cooking spray

Directions

Mix mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce together in a small bowl. Refrigerate Sriracha mayo until ready to serve.

Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Spread scallops out onto a plate or cutting board and blot dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper. Wrap each scallop with 1/3 slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick.

Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place bacon-wrapped scallops in the basket in a single layer; split into 2 batches if necessary.

Cook in the air fryer for 7 minutes. Check for doneness; scallops should be opaque and bacon should be crispy. Cook 1 to 2 minutes longer, if necessary, checking every minute. Remove scallops carefully with tongs and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil from the bacon. Serve with Sriracha mayo.
