Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices prosciutto crudo

Instructions
 

  • Preheat a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Using kitchen scissors, carefully trim the edges of the prosciutto to prevent shrinking during cooking.
  • Arrange prosciutto slices on your skillet.
  • Cook for 1 minutes until it turns golden and crisp. Using kitchen tongues, flip and cook for another 1 minute.
  • Remove from the skillet and let them cool for a minute over a kitchen paper before serving. They will get crispier as it cools.

Notes

  • Opt for high-quality prosciutto for the best results.
  • Ensure the slices are placed in a single layer for even crisping.
  • Experiment with different spice blends for a unique twist.
