Ingredients (one per line)

Directions

1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp. Remove the bacon from the skillet and drain onto paper towels. Strain off all but 1 tablespoon of bacon grease from the skillet and return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the corn and cook 3-4 minutes, until golden. Add 1 tablespoon butter and allow it to brown, about 3-5 minutes more. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in basil, lemon juice, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Spoon the corn out of the skillet and onto a platter.

2. Wipe the skillet clean and return to medium high heat. Add the olive oil. When the oil shimmers, add the scallops and sear on both sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the garlic, thyme, and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook until fragrant and the butter golden, about 3-4 minutes. Slowly pour in the wine, simmer 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.

3. Spoon the scallops and any sauce left in the pan over the corn. Sprinkle the bacon over top. Finish with avocado and fresh herbs. Eat!
