Instructions

FOR THE SALAD

  1. Clean the mixed baby green salad and prepare the vinaigrette (1 part vinegar + 3 part olive oil + salt) and set them both separate aside.

FOR EHT PRAWNS SALTIMBOCCA

  1. Widen the opening a bit larger of the prawn and place one small leave of save in the cavity. If leaves large cut in half.
  2. Grind pepper over the prawns. Wrap each prawn with one slice of prosciutto di Parma. Use a toothpick to hold together.
  3. Melt 1 ½ tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook prawns for 2 to 3 on each side. They have to be nicely golden brown.
  4. Remove the prawns from the skillet and set aside.
  5. Discard excess butter from skillet. Place the skillet over medium high heat. Add the wine and deglaze the skillet. Add the butter and swirl until melted.
  6. Mix the salad with the vinaigrette. Arrange the salad in the middle of the plate. Sprinkle parmesan cheese over it. Arrange the prawns on the salad and spoon the sauce over them.

Notes

  • I omitted the salt because when the prosciutto comes in contact with the heat source, it becomes drier and emits more salt. By salting the prawns beforehand, you may run into the risk of oversalting your dinner.
