Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.

The Bachelor Fantasy Suite Cabernet Sauvignon Wine

In the glass, this wine is a beautiful, deep ruby red color. On the nose, aromas of black cherry, blueberry and dark plum comingle with hints of savory, dried herbs. More dark fruit flavors of blackberry and plum are evident on the soft, round palate, which is complemented by lovely spicy notes. The wine's juicy, berry flavors extend to a lingering finish, beautifully enhanced by soft, round tannins.

Instructions

  1. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the bacon and fry, rendering all of the fat until the bacon is crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon.
  3. Pour all of the oil out of the pan and wipe the pan clean. Pour all but 3 tablespoons back into the pan, through a sieve to filter out bits that might burn, and turn the heat up to medium high.
  4. Working in batches and taking care not to do too much at once (you want the seafood to sear, not steam), pan sear the scallops and shrimp in the bacon fat and oil. Set aside as you finish.
  5. When done, pour all of the oil out, wipe the pan, and add the remaining 3 tablespoons of bacon fat/oil back into the pan. Turn heat to medium high.
  6. Add the onion to the pan.
  7. Cook for 5 minutes and then add the peppers. Cook an additional 2 minutes.
  8. Add the corn and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  9. Add the garlic and spices and cook, stirring, for another 2 minutes.
  10. Turn off the heat and add the cilantro and lime juice.
  11. Taste for salt and pepper.
  12. Serve by placing a generous scoop of the relish on each plate, sprinkle some bacon pieces over it, and place some of the scallops and shrimp on top of that. Garnish with some extra cilantro and a lime wedge.
