Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 pieces large shrimp (peeled and deveined, tails on)
- 8 slices prosciutto
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
- 0.5 cups mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoons honey
- 0.25 teaspoons paprika
- 1 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Lightly season with salt and black pepper.
Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise to create thin strips.
Wrap each shrimp with a strip of prosciutto, starting at the top of the shrimp and wrapping downward. Secure the ends by pressing the prosciutto gently into itself.
Place the prosciutto-wrapped shrimp on the prepared baking sheet, spaced evenly apart. Drizzle the olive oil over the shrimp to promote crisping.
Bake the shrimp in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and the prosciutto is crisp.
While the shrimp are baking, prepare the garlic dipping sauce. In a small mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, mayonnaise, lemon juice, honey, and paprika. Whisk together until smooth and well-blended.
Transfer the garlic dipping sauce to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley.
Remove the shrimp from the oven and allow them to rest for 1-2 minutes. Arrange them on a serving platter alongside the garlic dipping sauce.
Serve immediately and enjoy this delicious appetizer!
