Steak and Mushroom Scallops Tailgate Recipe

"I finally managed to get a steak dinner into one bite! Using a simple combination of my favorite steak toppings, bacon, mushrooms and blue cheese seasoned with McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning and rolled up into a scallop-sized morsel—a perfect recipe for the perfect game."

Gary House

Steak, carne asada cut, 1/4-inch thick

Bacon, one slice each

Crimini mushrooms, two each

1/4 teaspoon finely chopped chives, each

1/4 teaspoon blue cheese, crumbled, each

McCormick Grill Mates Montreal Steak Seasoning, applied as desired

McCormick Grill Mates Premium Smoky Montreal Steak Sauce, applied as desired

Toothpicks, soaked in water

Sprinkle each side of the steak with McCormick Grill Mates Montreal Steak Seasoning.

Remove stems from mushrooms, and clean caps with a paper towel. Place 1/4 teaspoon of chopped chives into one mushroom cap. Place 1/4 teaspoon of crumbled blue cheese into other mushroom cap. Place one mushroom on top of the other with the chives and blue cheese facing each other. Insert one toothpick through the center of top mushroom cap and into the center of the other mushroom cap, to hold in place.

Wrap seasoned steak once around the side of the joined mushroom caps. Wrap one slice of bacon around the steak. Pin steak and bacon into place with toothpick.

Grill over direct 350°F heat, with a drip pan under the scallops, for 15 minutes per side or until bacon is cooked.

Serve with McCormick Grill Mates Premium Smoky Montreal Steak Sauce.
