Prosciutto Wrapped Rosemary Grilled Scallops
- add review
- #82562
under 30 minutes
ingredients
30 fresh rosemary sprigs (4" long)
3 ounces prosciutto, sliced paper thin
1 1/2 pound sea scallops, crescent-shaped, membrane removed
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or basil oil
1 lemon, halved
coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
directions
Strip leaves off bottom 2" of each rosemary sprig, exposing woody stem.
Cut prosciutto crosswise into strips just large enough to wrap around scallops, about 3/4" x 4".
Lay scallop flat on work surface. Wrap piece of prosciutto around it, and skewer rosemary sprig crosswise through prosciutto. Prepare remaining scallops the same way.
Arrange scallops on baking dish. Drizzle both sides with olive oil, squeeze lemon juice over them (hold one hand under lemon, fingers closed, to catch seeds), and season with salt and pepper (Go easy on salt, as prosciutto is fairly salty).
Let marinate 15 minutes, while you light the grill. Set up grill for direct grilling, and preheat to high. Brush and oil grate.
Place folded sheet of aluminum foil under tops of rosemary skewers to keep them from burning. Grill scallops until just cooked, 2-3 minutes per side.
Serve at once.
