Here's a great prelude to a main-course pasta. Ingredients:
12 uncooked jumbo shrimp, peeled deveined |
1/2 cup dry white wine |
1/3 cup olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper |
3 thin prosciutto slices, each slice cut lengthwise in half, then crosswise in half |
2 tablespoons minced italian parsley |
lemon wedges |
Directions:
1. Combine shrimp, wine, oil, garlic and crushed pepper in bowl; toss to coat. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour.
2. Preheat broiler. Drain shrimp, reserving marinade. Wrap 1 prosciutto strip around each shrimp. Arrange 3 shrimp in each of 4 shallow broiler-proof dishes, tucking ends of prosciutto strips under shrimp. Drizzle 1 tablespoon marinade over shrimp in each dish.
3. Broil shrimp about 6 inches from heat source until prosciutto begins to crisp and shrimp are cooked through; watch closely to avoid burning, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with lemon wedges.
