Ingredients

• 16 pieces large shrimp (peeled and deveined, tails on)
• 8 slices prosciutto
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
• 0.5 cups mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoons honey
• 0.25 teaspoons paprika
• 1 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Lightly season with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Wrap each shrimp with a strip of prosciutto, starting at the top of the shrimp and wrapping downward. Secure the ends by pressing the prosciutto gently into itself.

Step 5

Place the prosciutto-wrapped shrimp on the prepared baking sheet, spaced evenly apart. Drizzle the olive oil over the shrimp to promote crisping.

Step 6

Bake the shrimp in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and the prosciutto is crisp.

Step 7

While the shrimp are baking, prepare the garlic dipping sauce. In a small mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, mayonnaise, lemon juice, honey, and paprika. Whisk together until smooth and well-blended.

Step 8

Transfer the garlic dipping sauce to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley.

Step 9

Remove the shrimp from the oven and allow them to rest for 1-2 minutes. Arrange them on a serving platter alongside the garlic dipping sauce.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy this delicious appetizer!
