| Prosciutto-Arugula-Provolone Packages |
Author: Nicole
Ingredients
- 8 ounces of Prosciutto (16 slices)
- ~ ½ pound sharp provolone
- 96 arugula leaves (3 per package)
- Balsamic vinegar glaze (see Notes)
Instructions
- Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise. It may be easier to roll each slice up first and then cut it in half. If you do it this way you will then need to unroll each piece.
- Cut 32 pieces of cheese – into about 1" squares.
- Place a piece of cheese about an inch from the top of a piece of prosciutto.
- Top cheese with three arugula leaves.
- Drizzle with balsamic glaze (one or two squirts).
- Wrap prosciutto around the cheese and arugula to form a "package." The prosciutto sticks to itself sealing it fairly well.
- Place on a serving platter. Repeat to make 32 total pieces. Refrigerate before serving. Remove from refrigerator 15-30 minutes prior to serving.
- It takes about a half hour to prepare 32 pieces. Can be made 2 hours ahead.
Notes
* Recipe easily doubles or triples.
* In addition to getting prosciutto at the deli counter, you can often find it in 4-ounce packages which contain 8 slices.
* Balsamic vinegar glaze can be found in the vinegar section at many supermarkets. If unavailable, boil ¾ cup balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan until reduced to 3 tablespoons, 6 to 7 minutes.
