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.
