Steps:

• Defrost artichoke hearts and pat dry. Combine hearts, olive oil, fresh herbs, salt and pepper in a bowl and marinate for 30-60 minutes. Pre-heat oven to broil. Wrap each heart with prosciutto and place on a cookie sheet. ( I lined my cookie sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy clean up.) Cook until prosciutto starts to crisp and turn brown - about 7-10 minutes. Remove from oven and top with balsamic vinegar/syrup and serve.

PROSCIUTTO CHIPS TOPPED WITH FRIED ARTICHOKE HEARTS

Steps:

• For Prosciutto Chips: Place onion in a saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the butter and allow onions to caramelize for about 10 to 18 minutes, stirring often.
• Place a 10-inch saute pan on medium heat. When the pan is hot, drizzle in the vegetable oil. Cut your prosciutto slices into pieces, the size of a troika chip. Fry until crisp, about 3 to 5 minutes. Drain on a paper towel lined plate.
• For Fried Artichoke Hearts: Place oil in a deep saucepan. Heat to 350 degrees F.
• Cut the artichoke hearts into quarters. Dust artichoke hearts in your all-purpose flour. Place artichoke heart into your preheated oil and fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel lined plate.
• To assemble, place a artichoke heart on top of a piece of prosciutto, garnish with a couple pieces of caramelized onion, and serve. See Cook's Note.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH HERBED GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread 1 tablespoon of olive oil on a baking sheet, and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the shallots, and cook until they turn translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper; cook and stir an additional 2 minutes. Transfer the shallot mixture to a bowl. Mix in the goat cheese, dates, and basil; stir until well combined.
• With a sharp knife, cut a 1-inch long slit into the thick side of each chicken breast. Work your fingers into the slit, and expand the slit to form a pocket in the breast meat. With your fingers or a spoon, stuff each chicken breast with about 1/4 cup of the goat cheese mixture. Wipe off any cheese mixture from the outside of the chicken breast, and wrap each breast in a slice of prosciutto so that the pocket opening is covered. Place the chicken breasts, seam sides down, onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken meat is no longer pink and the prosciutto is browned and crisp, about 40 minutes. Turn the chicken breasts over after 20 minutes.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED FIG HEARTS

Steps:

• Using a paring knife, slice a small pocket in rounded end of a fig. Stuff pocket with a scant teaspoon of cheese; press down to form a heart shape. Wrap with a third of a prosciutto slice; secure with a cocktail pick. Repeat with remaining figs. Drizzle lightly with balsamic vinegar; serve. Wrapped figs may be refrigerated, covered in plastic wrap, up to 8 hours; bring to room temperature before serving.
