• 4 spread the bacon slices out on a cutting board, as many as you have room for. place a water chestnut-scallop tower on the end of a bacon slice, then roll the bacon around the tower – you should have 2 bacon sides and 2 exposed water chestnut scallop sides. put a toothpick through the tower to hold the bacon in place.
