Prosciutto-Wrapped Shrimp
This is really an appetizer, but posted here because of Shrimp


Use Parma prosciutto for this dish—it’s less salty than domestic brands.

24 large shrimp (about 1 pound), peeled and deveined
1 teaspoon instant minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon dill weed
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon leaves
1/2 pound prosciutto, sliced paper-thin
Nonstick cooking spray


In a medium bowl place shrimp, garlic, dill, and tarragon; toss to coat. Cut prosciutto slices in half lengthwise. Wrap each shrimp in a half-slice of prosciutto.

Thread wrapped shrimp on skewers, leaving a little space between each piece. Spray lightly with cooking spray.

Place skewers on center of cooking grate and grill for 5 to 6 minutes, turning once halfway through grilling time.



Makes 12 servings.

Note: If using wooden skewers, soak in water 30 minutes before using so ends won’t burn during grilling.
