Ingredients
- 20 chestnuts - cooked and peeled
- 10 lices speck
- 1 prig rosemary
- 1 tablespoon olive oil - extra virgin
Instructions
- Start by placing the slices of speck on a cutting board, one at a time. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut each slice in half lengthwise. This will give you long, thin pieces to wrap around the chestnuts.
- Next, take each chestnut and wrap it in half of the speck slice.
- Roll the speck tightly around the chestnut to make sure it holds together. Continue this process until all of the chestnuts are wrapped in speck.
- Line an oven dish with a sheet of baking paper to prevent sticking. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) so it’s ready for baking when you finish preparing the chestnuts.
- Arrange the speck-wrapped chestnuts in the baking dish, leaving a little space between each one.
- Sprinkle a few rosemary needles over them to add a fragrant flavor. Then, drizzle a small amount of extra virgin olive oil over the chestnuts to help them crisp up while baking.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until you see the speck becoming crispy.
- Once done, take the chestnuts out of the oven and transfer them to a serving plate. Garnish with a few sprigs of fresh rosemary for extra aroma and serve immediately while still warm.
