Ingredients

• 12 pieces large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 6 slices thinly sliced ham (prosciutto or deli ham works well)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 pinch black pepper
• 12 pieces toothpicks

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.

Step 2

Cut each slice of ham in half lengthwise to create long strips. You will have 12 strips.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, fresh parsley, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create a marinade.

Step 4

Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss until fully coated. Let it sit for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Step 5

Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Wrap each shrimp with a strip of ham and secure it with a toothpick.

Step 7

Working in batches, place the ham-wrapped shrimp in the skillet, seam-side down. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp turn pink and the ham is slightly crispy.

Step 8

Remove from the skillet and let them rest for 1 minute before serving.

Step 9

Arrange on a plate and serve warm as an appetizer or light entrée. Optionally, garnish with additional parsley and lemon wedges.
