From Sparrow’s dinner menu, the Scallops & Prosciutto is a special-occasion plate that still feels welcoming, the Sparrow way ($52).
About the Dish
Fresh caught sea scallops are grilled and paired with d’Parma prosciutto, so you get sweet, tender scallops against savory, salty cured ham. We add red peppers and a fig sauce for a sweet, jammy depth that plays off the salt of the prosciutto, and serve it all over polenta to round the plate out. It is a thoughtful combination of textures and flavors, the kind of entree that makes a night out in Kirkland’s Juanita feel a little extra special. The creamy polenta gives the seared scallops and crisp prosciutto a soft base to settle into.
What to Drink With It
Sweet scallops and a fig sauce shine alongside bubbles or a bright white. The Veuve Clicquot is a festive match for a special plate like this, and the Rombauer Sauvignon Blanc keeps things crisp against the fig. Explore the Sparrow beverages menu.
