1poundjumbo shrimp(16/20 pound), shelled and deveined with tails left on
4ouncesvery thinly sliced prosciuttosliced lengthwise into ½-inch strips
Instructions
Preheat the broiler, and place the cooking rack about 4 inches below the heat source. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray, or line with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss until they are coated with the seasoned olive oil.
Wrap each shrimp with a strip of the prosciutto, spiraling it up the shrimp until the shrimp is encased. Place the shrimp on the prepared baking sheet.
Broil for 3 minutes, until the tops are crispy, then turn and broil for another 3 minutes until the other side is browned. Serve with little napkins, with the crispier side up.
Notes
These are the perfect handheld appetizer! Make sure and use napkins for guests to conceal the tails.
