I had never thought of trying one of my favorite Appetizer dishes (Bacon wrapped Scallops) with Proscuitto instead, I got the idea and the basic recipe frame from 'Everyday Italian' with Giada DeLorentis (Food Network) - and did some tweaking as well as adding the Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce -- WOW, it far exceeded my expectations PLUS the Proscuitto is much leaner than fatty Bacon -- Buon Appetito!

Steps:
- Place the lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, parsley or Oregano/Basil, and black pepper in a bowl and mix well.
- Add the scallops and turn to coat thoroughly.
- Wrap each scallop with a thin slice of Proscuitto and secure with a toothpick.
- Place on a preheated grill and cook for 3 minutes (get those pretty grill marks on the scallops), basting with the olive oil mixture.
- Turn, baste with more of the olive oil mixture and continue to cook for a further 2-3 minutes & Serve immediately.
- Make Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce: Mix all ingredients well and divide into individual servings in ramekins for each person ~ dip scallops in the sauce ~ Wow, is it great!
