Air Fryer Bacon-Wrapped Scallops with Sriracha Mayo

Servings:

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

Instructions

  1. 1 Mix together mayonnaise and Sriracha in a small bowl until well combined. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  2. 2 Preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  3. 3 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.
  4. 4 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.
  5. 5 Cook in the preheated 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 bacon. Serve with Sriracha mayo.
