Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Prosciutto slices
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will help prevent the prosciutto from sticking and make clean-up easier.
Lay the prosciutto slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap. This will ensure they cook evenly and turn crispy.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven on the middle rack.
Bake the prosciutto slices for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, check for crispness. If they are not crispy enough, bake for an additional 2-5 minutes, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.
Once crispy, remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the prosciutto slices to a wire rack to cool. This will help them maintain their crisp texture.
Allow the prosciutto to cool completely, about 5 minutes, before serving or using in your desired dish.
