Provided by Joanna Cismaru

Categories     Dinner     Lunch

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounce scallops (about 10 large scallops)
3 ounce prosciutto (roughly chopped)
2 tablespoon butter
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup white wine
1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
1 green onion (chopped)

Steps:

  • Season the scallops with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium size skillet heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the scallops to the skillet in a single layer and sear them on each side for about 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until it gets slightly golden. Remove the scallops from the skillet to a plate and set aside.
  • In the same skillet add the chopped prosciutto and fry for about 3 to 5 minutes until nice and crispy. Add the butter and the garlic to the skillet and cook until the butter melts and the garlic becomes aromatic.
  • Stir in the heavy cream, white wine and season with salt and pepper if necessary. The prosciutto could be a bit salty so there may not be a need for additional salt. Cook for about 2 minutes then add the scallops back to the skillet.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and chopped green onion and serve immediately.

Scallop and Prosciutto Bites image

A different version of the commonly seen appetizer of scallops wrapped in bacon. Using prosciutto allows for the subtle flavors of this meat to come through without overpowering the wonderful flavor of the scallops. Additionally, the fat content and grease is significantly less than bacon for those that are health conscious. I serve this for guests as an appetizer and people love it. It can be made into a main course dish by increase the portion for each person.

4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
toothpicks
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons white wine

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for sea scallops that are plump and firm, with a briny smell. Prosciutto should be thinly sliced and of good quality. Chipotle mayo can be store-bought or homemade. If making your own, use a good quality mayonnaise and add a few chipotle peppers in adobo sauce to taste.
  • Sear the scallops properly. Sear the scallops in a hot skillet until they are golden brown and caramelized on the outside, but still tender and juicy on the inside. This will take about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Don't overcook the scallops. Scallops are very delicate and can easily be overcooked. Cook them just until they are opaque throughout, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Serve the scallops immediately. Scallops are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that they are at their best flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Prosciutto-wrapped scallops with chipotle mayo is a delicious and elegant appetizer or main course. The combination of salty prosciutto, tender scallops, and creamy chipotle mayo is irresistible. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
