Arrange the prosciutto slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure the slices don't overlap to allow them to crisp evenly.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes, keeping an eye on them to prevent burning.
Remove the prosciutto from the oven once they are golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the crispy prosciutto slices to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess fat and to cool slightly.
