Heat a large frypan on high heat and add the prosciutto. Cook for 1 minute on each side, until crispy. Remove from the heat and place the prosciutto onto paper towel to drain.

Heat a large pot of salted water over high heat until boiling. Add the pasta, and cook as per the packet instructions.

Whilst the pasta is cooking, heat the same large frypan over high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the butter, scallops and garlic, and cook for 30 seconds. Quickly turn the scallops and add the white wine. Cook for another minute before turning off the heat. Add the herbs, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt and pepper. When cooked, drain the pasta and add to the frypan. Toss to combine.
