Prosciutto Wrapped Scallops Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill to high. (If using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for 2 seconds.)
• Halve 1 slice prosciutto lengthwise. Fold in half lengthwise, and wrap around sides of 1 scallop, overlapping prosciutto ends. Repeat with remaining prosciutto and scallops. Thread several scallops on each skewer.
• Drizzle scallops lightly with oil, squeeze lemons over skewers, and season with pepper. Grill scallops, turning once, until just opaque, about 3 minutes per side. Serve with lemon.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the dry rub: Mix together the garlic, paprika, salt, pepper and cayenne in a small bowl.
• For the scallops: Trim the side muscle from the scallops, if not done already. Pat the scallops dry and sprinkle them on both sides with the dry rub. Wrap the scallops with the prosciutto so that only the top is showing. To do this, spread out a slice of prosciutto; set a scallop on its edge and roll it up in the prosciutto, tucking prosciutto under one side as you go and leaving the other side exposed.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the canola oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter and sear the scallops on the prosciutto side for 1 to 2 minutes without disturbing, to ensure a good crust. Flip the scallops and cook on the scallop side for 3 to 4 minutes, or until opaque. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter to the pan and baste the scallops with the melted butter. Transfer the cooked scallops to a platter. Deglaze the pan with the white wine, whisking vigorously to emulsify; stir in the chives and parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Spoon some of the pan sauce over the scallops; serve any extra sauce on the side. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and serve.

Steps:

• Rinse the scallops and then pat them dry with a paper towel.
• Drizzle olive oil on one side of scallops.
• Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and some fresh lemon juice.
• Turn scallops over and repeat step 3.
• Fold slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise and wrap around the each scallop.
• Secure with a wooden skewer.
• Place on grill set to high heat.
• Cook on each side for about 4-5 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F.
• In a small bowl, combine scallops and oil; toss to coat.
• Place basil leaf on center of each prosciutto strip; top each with a scallop.
• Roll up; place seam side down in ungreased 15x10x1-inch baking pan.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes or until opaque.
• Insert decorative toothpick into each.
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• Wrap each scallop with a thin slice of prosciutto and secure with a toothpick.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the scallops into the pan, and cook for about 2 minutes on each side. Season each side with pepper as it is cooking. Once each side has been fried, sprinkle the white wine over the scallops, and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove the scallops from the pan to drain on paper towels. When slightly cooled, transfer to a serving tray, and remove the toothpicks to serve.
