Pharma wrapped Portobello Mushroom

An appetizer or a side-dish that can be prepared way ahead if time is limited.  I have used Prosciutto di Parma but you can use any other type of prosciutto, I have also used Boars Head Prosciutto and that worked fine. Bacon can also be used if you like that.

Ingredients;

As many slices of Portobello as you like
Prosciutto di Parma (a halv slice for every portabello slice)
2 garlic cloves to 12 portabello slices minced
Fresh thyme
salt and pepper
4 tbsp Olive oil

Preheat oven to 437 F.

Add the garlic to the olive oil. Dip the Portobello in the olive oil on both sides and put a thyme sprig on top, add salt and pepper then wrap the portobello in half a slice of the prosciutto. Go easy on the salt as the prosciutto adds a lot of salt to the dish by it selves. Up to this point everything can be made ahead and refrigerated.

When ready add the portobello to an ovenproof dish, drizzle some olive oil on top and bake in the oven for around ten minutes. The portobello is supposed to be nice and crispy but not burnt.





Eat warm or lukewarm!
