Ingredients

• 16 pieces jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 8 slices prosciutto
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 16 pieces toothpicks or skewers
• 4 pieces lemon wedges (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise to create 16 strips.

Step 3

Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels, then season lightly with black pepper and garlic powder.

Step 4

Wrap each shrimp with a strip of prosciutto, starting at the head and working your way down. Secure the end with a toothpick or skewer if necessary.

Step 5

Arrange the shrimp on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is space between each piece for even cooking.

Step 6

Drizzle the shrimp with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, making sure each piece is lightly coated.

Step 7

Roast the shrimp in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through and the prosciutto is slightly crisp.

Step 8

While the shrimp cooks, prepare the glaze by whisking together the honey and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl.

Step 9

Remove the shrimp from the oven and brush each piece with the honey-balsamic glaze while still warm.

Step 10

Transfer the shrimp to a serving platter, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve immediately with optional lemon wedges for garnish.
