  1. Adjust the oven rack to the upper-middle position and heat the oven to 450°F.
  2. Pulse the Red Pepper-Caper Sauce in the small food processor until combined, minced, and relish-like, not puréed.
  3. Taste the sauce and season with additional salt and ground black pepper if needed.
  4. Sprinkle the Seasoning evenly over both sides of the Salmon.
  5. Wrap each salmon fillet with 2 slightly overlapping slices from the Prosciutto, leaving some salmon exposed if needed, and place each fillet seam-side down.
  6. Heat the Skillet Oil in the 12-inch oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking.
  7. Place the wrapped salmon fillets in the skillet and cook until the prosciutto is lightly browned on the first side, about 2 minutes.
  8. Flip the salmon gently with tongs and cook until the prosciutto is lightly browned on the second side, about 2 minutes.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the salmon registers 125°F for medium-rare, about 5 minutes.
