Scallop And Prosciutto Skewers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a food processor, add the tomatoes, basil, olives, and olive oil and process until finely chopped.
• Season both sides of the scallops with salt and pepper. Rub each scallop with the tomato mixture. Fold each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise, then wrap each scallop in 1 slice of prosciutto. Place wrapped scallops in a buttered baking dish, seam side down. Bake until scallop is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, toss the arugula with the balsamic vinegar. Season the arugula with salt and pepper. Place the arugula on a serving platter or divide among individual dishes. Top with the scallops and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In small bowl, mix first five ingredients to make sauce. Assemble skewers by placing one scallop (or two-three bay scallops) and one piece of scallion on each skewer. (These skewers can be prepped a day ahead and kept chilled in the fridge, then grilled a few hours before party time and kept warm until serving.)
• Brush with ginger soy sauce and cook about two minutes per side or until just opaque. Be careful not to overcook scallops or they'll get a rubbery texture. Continue to brush with sauce throughout cooking.

Steps:

• Fill a large saucepan with cold water. Add beets; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer; cook until beets are fork tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Let cool slightly; rub away skins with a paper towel. Cut beets in half, and set aside.
• Rinse scallops; pat dry. Wrap scallops in prosciutto, tucking a leaf or two of mint between prosciutto and scallop. Thread 4 scallops, alternating with beets, on each of 8 skewers. Squeeze juice of 1 lemon over skewers. Brush gently with some olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange skewers, off direct heat, on a medium-hot grill. Grill, rotating skewers and brushing with oil as needed to prevent sticking, until cooked through, about 5 minutes, depending on heat of grill. Beets should be soft and slightly charred. Remove from grill; squeeze remaining lemon over skewers. Serve with condiments.

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:

• Soak 10 small wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes.
• Cut prosciutto slices in half crosswise if they are large.
• Put a slice of prosciutto on a flat surface. Place a large basil leaf at one end of slice and place a large sea scallop on the leaf. Wrap the prosciutto around the scallop and basil, tucking in the sides, and thread two packets onto each skewer.
• Grill on an open grill over medium hot coals until ham begins to brown and sizzle, two to five minutes for each side.

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.

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.
