1
Prepare the scallops
Rinse the sea scallops under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
2
Wrap scallops with prosciutto
Take each scallop and wrap it with half a slice of prosciutto, ensuring the scallop is fully covered. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.

3
Heat the pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4
Cook the scallops
Carefully place the wrapped scallops in the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the prosciutto is crispy and the scallops are opaque and cooked through.
5
Garnish and serve
Remove the scallops from the skillet and place them on a serving platter. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
