How to Cook Oak-Smoked Queenies
- Mix together the sherry and the sugar then add the queen scallops. Allow to marinade for at least an hour. Cut the bacon rashers (slices) in half lengthways then again in half across the width (4 strips of bacon from each rasher). Place one queen scallop onto a water chestnut and wrap around the circular side with a strip of oak-smoked bacon, securing with a toothpick or skewer. Do the same for each queenie. Grill (broil) all of the queenie parcels until the bacon is cooked - about 5 - 6 minutes. Serve hot with a little Basmati rice.

If you can't get oak-smoked bacon, you can use any smoked bacon. It won't be quite the same, but it will still taste good.
Reviews of Oak-Smoked Queenies
![]() When I think of these, I immediately start humming the Frankie Valli song, "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" because as soon as these are cooked and on the plate I really can't take my eyes off them. They are, as the song says, "Too Good To Be True". These are monsters in the nicest possible way. I love them! Audrey_Killen (1 review) |

Burgers are so versatile. They can be made from almost any type of meat and they can be accompanied by a whole range of goodies.

Fish can be so easily spoiled by careless cooking, yet its delicate and light meat is so easy to get right if you have the right recipes.

What do you do with the leftovers? There are so many really great ways to make use of them that your should never waste anything.
Other Fish & Seafood Recipes

A lovely, spicy new way with salmon, with the horseradish perfectly complementing the fish, and a good source of omega-3 to boot.

This is a great starter course and needs to be made the day before (which allows you plenty of time to focus on preparing the rest of your meal).

Scallops and Chorizo is quick, simple and absolutely delicious. The smokiness of the chorizo and the sweetness of the honey is an absolute delight.
