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



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.

PAN-FRIED PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED SCALLOPS WITH WHITE WINE PAN SAUCE



Pan-Fried Prosciutto-Wrapped Scallops with White Wine Pan Sauce image

Provided by Guy Fieri

Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Pinch cayenne
12 large sea scallops
12 thin slices prosciutto
1 tablespoon canola oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, halved

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.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED SCALLOPS NESTED IN RATATOUILLE



PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED SCALLOPS NESTED IN RATATOUILLE image

Categories     Fish

Yield 3-4 people

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 scallops
6 large very thin slices of prosciutto di Parma
rosemary sprigs
olive oil
truffle-infused olive oil
a splash of Royal Tokaji (Hungarian dessert wine)
a few cloves of garlic
1 large aubergine
2 medium bell peppers
3 onions
selection of various tomatoes (different sizes and colors are best)
12 baby courgettes
squid ink (black) tagliatelle (optional)
herbes de provence
sea salt & freshly ground pepper (for seasoning)

Steps:

  • First prepare the ratatouille: Slice aubergine in half-inch slices, sprinkle with salt and place over paper towels (to absorb the bitter juice). Let sit for 30 minutes. Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a large deep pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 garlic cloves, either chopped or pressed and 3 finely chopped onions. Heat until translucent. Then add roughly chopped courgettes, bell pepper, and aubergine. Let cook for approx. 10 minutes, adding more olive oil and stirring as necessary. Rougly chop tomatoes and add, turning down heat to medium and seasoning to taste. Let stew for as long as possible (ratatouille actually tastes best the next day). Prepare the scallops: Tear Prosciutto slices into long 1-2 inch wide pieces. Wrap one piece around each scallop and spear with rosemary sprigs to hold them together. Sprinkle with sea salt and pepper. Heat olive oil and a splash of truffle oil in a skillet over high heat. Add 1 chopped clove of garlic. When oil temperature is high enough (but not smoking!) add the scallops (fish side down). Then add a generous splash of Royal Tokaji. Let the scallops caramelize (the bases should be a lovely dark brown color) before turning. A few minutes per side. Meanwhile, boil squid ink tagliatelle for 3 minutes (al dente). Add with a spider spoon to the ratatouille (with a touch of the pasta water) and continue to stir. Finally, add the scallops (removing the rosemary skewers) to the ratatouille and pasta pan and stir for a few minutes so they can absorb the flavors. Serve on a plate: ratatouille as the base, followed by a small nest of pasta (optional) and finally the carmelized scallops resting on top.

EASY SCALLOP PASTA



Easy scallop pasta image

Choose fat scallops for this speedy but smart pasta recipe- the ham wrappers will protect the tender shellfish and give an extra savoury hit

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Lunch

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 scallops with corals
6 slices prosciutto , halved lengthways
175g fresh egg fettuccine or tagliatelle
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil , plus extra for drizzling (optional)
4 garlic cloves , finely chopped
¼ tsp thyme leaf
zest of 1 lemon and juice ½
4 tbsp dry white vermouth (we used Noilly Prat)
good handful chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Cut the orange corals from the scallops and finely chop them. Halve the white scallops to make 2 fat pieces and roll them up in the strips of prosciutto.
  • Cook the pasta in salted water following pack instructions - it should only take about 4 mins. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large, deep sauté pan and sear the scallops for 1-2 mins, to brown the prosciutto and lightly cook the scallop inside. Lift from the pan onto a warm plate and leave to rest.
  • Add the garlic to the pan juices and fry, stirring, until golden. Tip in the chopped corals and thyme, and stir-fry for a few mins more. Add the lemon zest, juice and vermouth, let it bubble down to at least half, then toss in the parsley. Drain the pasta and add to the pan with salt and plenty of black pepper, then toss to make sure the strands are well coated. Add the prosciutto-wrapped scallops and serve drizzled with a little extra oil, if you like.

This is such an easy and impressive meal. The prosciutto gets a nice crunch to it, but also melts in your mouth. I like to serve over a bed of wilted spinach. Splurge for the better quality Prosciutto di Parma. Don't forget to soak your wooden skewers in water for about a half an hour so they do not burn on the grill! Enjoy!
