Don't be Shellfish...

Here's a fun fact: I auditioned for the NBC show Food Fighters in 2013 and made it through five rounds of interviews and challenges. During one of the rounds I had to make a signature dish and describe it. I made this. It was the first time I had made it, soooo I guess it wasn't really a signature? Maybe that's why I didn't get cast on the show? Shit. Anyway - it BECAME a signature dish of mine and now I make it all the time. It's simple, fresh and perfect for Spring. I challenge you to make it this season and tag me along the process using #hangrydistrict! Check out how you can make it below.

BBQ Bacon Wrapped Scallops

Addicting Appetizer

The very first appetizer I created at my debut catering gig in 2010 was bacon wrapped scallops -- my way. I stuck with classic Maryland-style flavor combinations, while allowing the delicate scallop to shine. Have I mentioned I was born and raised in Frederick, MD? Now you know. The best part is that these hors-d'oeuvres can be made in advance, so you can enjoy the party with your friends and pop these in the oven when your guests start to get hangry!
