Step-by-step

  1. Combine the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over a moderate heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the mixture has reduced by one-third. Allow to cool.
  2. Meanwhile, slice each piece of prosciutto in half lengthwise and wrap around the scallops, securing each with a sprig of rosemary. Brush with olive oil and season.
  3. Cook the scallops in a griddle pan over a medium heat, turning once, until they are firm to the touch and opaque in the centre. Transfer to a serving plate and drizzle with the balsamic glaze.
