Ingredients

  • 1/4 pounds Prosciutto, Sliced Thin
  • 1 whole Large Zucchini (or 2 Small)
  • 1 Tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar
  • Coarse Salt And Pepper, To Taste

Method

  • Take your prosciutto (I like to get it sliced thin at the deli, instead of using the pre-packaged), and slice each piece down the middle, so you have have two long thin pieces per slice.
  • Cut your zucchini into sticks, leaving the skin on.
  • Wrap each zucchini stick in the center with a piece of prosciutto (see photo). It might overlap a couple of times. You can use a toothpick to help secure it, but I don't. They don't have to look perfect. Rustic is "in."
  • You can do these on an outdoor grill, but I think they are easier on my indoor grill pan. Spray the pan first with non-stick cooking spray and heat over medium high heat. Grill the zucchini sticks on each side for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until the prosciutto is crisp and the zucchini softened. Drizzle with a small amount of balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with coarse salt and pepper.
  • This is a great appetizer, or even a side dish for any dinner. My family loves anything with prosciutto, so this is a great way to get them to eat zucchini too!
  • Enjoy!
