Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Prosciutto
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to catch the fat drippings and to prevent sticking.
Arrange the prosciutto slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
Bake the prosciutto for 8-10 minutes, or until the slices are crisp and slightly darkened but not burnt.
Keep a close watch during the last few minutes of baking to prevent burning, as prosciutto can go from perfect to overdone quickly.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the crispy prosciutto slices to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess fat and help maintain their crispiness.
Allow the prosciutto to cool for a few minutes; they will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Serve immediately as a topping on salads, pasta, or enjoy them as a crispy snack.
