Prosciutto Bites Recipes

SCALLOP AND PROSCIUTTO BITES

Steps:

• Wrap each scallop with a thin slice of prosciutto and secure with a toothpick.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the scallops into the pan, and cook for about 2 minutes on each side. Season each side with pepper as it is cooking. Once each side has been fried, sprinkle the white wine over the scallops, and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove the scallops from the pan to drain on paper towels. When slightly cooled, transfer to a serving tray, and remove the toothpicks to serve.

BRIE, CRANBERRY AND PROSCIUTTO BITES

Steps:

• Unmold the cranberry sauce from the can, and slice into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Trim the rounds into 1-inch squares.
• Remove the outer rind from the wheel of Brie, leaving the top and bottom rind intact. Cut across into 3/4-inch-thick slices, then cut the slices into 1-inch pieces.
• Put Brie squares on mini toasts and top with pieces of cranberry sauce, then wrap in prosciutto and secure with decorative toothpicks. Serve at room temperature.

PROSCIUTTO BITES

Steps:

• You want all the ingredients (other than the prosciutto and black pepper) to be around the same size.
• I buy the slices of havarti from the deli and cut them into four long slices. Then cut those strips in half widthwise. I then put two pieces into a roll.
• Cut the pear into quarters and core it. Then cut each quarter in four long thin slices. I end up with a few slices leftover but I consider those treats for the cook!
• At one end of a slice of prosciutto, place a cheese slice, a pear wedge and a pepper stick.
• Sprinkle with pepper.
• Roll up slices and secure with toothpick if necessary. I find that the meay sticks to itself usually well enough to not need toothpicks.
• After they are rolled up, you can cutthem in half if you would like a smaller bite.
• Refrigerate prior to serving and keep cool during serving.

PROSCIUTTO AND HONEYDEW BITES WITH BALSAMIC AND BLACK PEPPER

Steps:

• Put the vinegar in a small saucepan or skillet with 1/4 teaspoon pepper and simmer over medium heat until reduced to about 1 tablespoon, about 5 minutes (be careful; it can burn quickly towards the end). Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Wrap each piece of honeydew in a prosciutto half and top with a basil leaf, inserting a small pick to secure everything.
• Drizzle with some of the reduced vinegar and grind a little more black pepper on top.

FIG AND PROSCIUTTO APPETIZER BITES

Steps:

• Place goat cheese on a sheet of plastic wrap. Top with another sheet of plastic wrap and use a rolling pin to flatten into a 4x8-inch rectangle.
• Remove the top sheet of plastic wrap and cover goat cheese with slices of prosciutto, slightly overlapping the edges. Cover prosciutto with a new sheet of plastic wrap and flip both sheets over so the goat cheese layer is now facing up.
• Remove top sheet of plastic wrap. Cover goat cheese evenly with figs, basil, and black pepper. Starting from the long edge, roll tightly to form a log. Wrap log in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
