Ingredients

Method

In skillet, cook bacon over medium-high heat until golden and crispy, about 6 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer to paper towel–lined plate.

Transfer 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the bacon fat to Dutch oven and heat over medium heat; cook potatoes, celery, onion, thyme, paprika, salt, pepper and bay leaf until onion is softened, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with flour; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk in milk, clam juice and 1-1/2 cups (375 mL) water; bring to boil. Stir in bacon; reduce heat, cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until potato is tender, about 15 minutes.

Stir in scallops and parsley; simmer, covered, until scallops are opaque, 3 to 5 minutes. Discard bay leaf. Stir in lemon juice.
