Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 slices Thinly sliced prosciutto or serrano ham
- 12 pieces Breadsticks (grissini or similar)
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Butter (unsalted)
- 4 sprigs Fresh rosemary (optional, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon Cracked black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Lay out the slices of ham on a clean surface. Place one breadstick at the edge of each slice, then roll the ham tightly around the breadstick to fully encase it.
3. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and stir in the honey until the mixture is well combined and slightly runny. Remove from heat.
4. Using a pastry brush, lightly glaze each ham-wrapped breadstick with the honey-butter mixture.
5. Arrange the glazed breadsticks onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not touch each other.
6. Sprinkle a light dusting of cracked black pepper over the breadsticks for added flavor.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until the ham is slightly crispy and the honey glaze has caramelized.
8. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with sprigs of fresh rosemary for a touch of aroma and presentation, if desired.
9. Serve warm or at room temperature as the perfect tapas or appetizer.
