Bacon-wrapped scallops are so last year! Try this twist that takes just 10 minutes and two ingredients… Prosciutto-Wrapped Shrimp!

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED SHRIMP

  • 5-7 thin slices prosciutto
  • 1 pound jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined (tail on or off)
  • Olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • lemon

Preheat oven to 425°F.

On a cutting board, slice the prosciutto into three long strips and then slice each of those strips in half.  (You don’t want to them to be too long.)  Wrap a piece of prosciutto around the shrimp, and lay on a parchment-covered baking sheet.  Repeat with the remaining shrimp and prosciutto.

Brush with olive oil and season with a few generous pinches of salt and pepper.

Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and the prosciutto is slightly crispy.  Serve warm or at room temperature.
