Best Baked Mozzarella Wrapped In Prosciutto Recipes

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED MOZZARELLA {THE CAPITAL GRILLE COPYCAT}

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F; then combine the butter and cheese in a small bowl.
• Brush the butter mixture onto both sides of the bread; then place on baking sheet and cook 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through until both sides are toasted. Remove from the oven and cool (leave the oven on).
• Cut the tomatoes in half, place them in a bowl; then add fresh chopped basil, balsamic vinegar, EVOO, Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper. Allow to rest until you're ready to plate.
• Cut the cheese into twelve 1/2-inch strips; then wrap each piece of cheese with the prosciutto and repeat for all.
• Melt the butter in a large stainless steel skillet; then add the wrapped cheese to the pan. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side to sear the prosciutto; then place the pan in the oven. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the cheese starts to melt and is hot. (Remove the pan from the oven with an OVEN MITT, the handle WILL BE HOT!)
• Put the tomatoes in the center of the plate, arrange the Mozzarella on top of the tomatoes; then drizzle balsamic vinegar and EVOO around the plate and top with the toasted bread. Garnish with some more chopped fresh basil and serve warm.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED MOZZARELLA

Steps:

• Remove the mozzarella sticks from their wrappers. Place them on a wax-paper-lined platter and freeze for at least four hours and preferably overnight.
• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with high-heat-resistant parchment paper.
• Wrap each cheese stick in a prosciutto slice, as shown in the video below. As you wrap it around, the edges of the prosciutto will stick to each other so that it's fairly neatly wrapped.
• Place the wrapped mozzarella sticks, seam side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Bake them until the cheese just starts to melt, about 5 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

MOZZARELLA AND PROSCIUTTO ROLL - PAULA DEEN

Steps:

• From the fresh mozzarella, home made or store bought, slice off a piece and using a rolling pin, roll it out into a smooth flat piece, about 1/2-inch thick. Place the prosciutto and fresh basil on the mozzarella and season with black pepper. Roll the layers up, either tie or slice before serving.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED MOZZARELLA & BASIL

Steps:

• Arrange 8 slices of prosciutto flat on a cutting board and put a piece of basil on one end of each slice. Top each piece of basil with a piece of mozzarella and a tomato half, matching the cut sides to make a ball.
• Season very lightly with salt and generously with pepper and then roll up the balls in the prosciutto. Secure each with a toothpick and set on a platter.
• Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Drizzle with the olive oil and serve. These keep at room temperature for up to 1 hour before serving.
