Ingredients:

Serving

creamy grits
5 slices bacon
2 lb sea scallops
3/4 tsp salt, divided
1/4 tsp black pepper, divided
2 tbsp unsalted butter
1 cup chopped sweet onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup chopped red bell pepper
1 cup shelled frozen edamame ( green soybeans)
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup grape tomatoes
1/4 cup fresh basil, thinly sliced

Directions:

Prepare Creamy Grits; cover and keep warm.
Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat 9 minutes or until crisp; remove bacon, and drain on paper towels, reserving drippings in skillet. Crumble bacon, and set aside.
Sprinkle scallops with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Heat drippings over medium-high heat until hot. Add scallops, in 2 batches, and cook 3 minutes. Turn and cook 3 minutes. Remove scallops.
Add butter to pan. Add onion and garlic; sauté, stirring often, 2 minutes. Stir in bell pepper and edamame; cook 2 minutes or until crisp-tender. Add wine, and cook 30 seconds, stirring to loosen particles from bottom of skillet. Add bacon, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper, and tomatoes; cook, stirring constantly, 5 minutes or until tomatoes soften. Return scallops to pan; cook 1 minute or just until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat, and stir in basil. Serve over Creamy Grits.
Note: Stir the grits just before serving, adding a small amount of hot chicken broth or water if necessary to achieve desired consistency.
