About

I had a similar dish to this for Christmas dinner in Puerto Vallarta, made with Chilean sea bass. I have used large, fleshy scallops instead, as their briny iodine flavour harmonises beautifully with the citrus flavours and fresh herbs. It is possible to use Spanish Iberian jamon in place of the prosciutto if you wish – it will add a slightly sweeter flavour.
