Ingredients

• 1 pound jumbo shrimp
• 1/2 pound prosciutto di Parma

• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

• Butterfly each piece of shrimp. Insert a paring knife along the backside of the shrimp and cut to the other side (but do not cut though).
• In a medium fry pan, saute the garlic in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium low heat. Cook for about 4 minutes, or until the garlic starts to soften (and smell wonderful).
• Add the panko breadcrumbs, parsley, salt, pepper and chicken broth. If the mixture seems too dry, add more broth, 1 tablespoon at a time (1-2 more tablespoons should be plenty). The mixture should be slightly moist, not Shrimp wrapped in prosciutto - this elegant appetizer will have your guests running to the table ~ www.mangiamichelle.comwet.
