Prosciutto and Red Peppers Appetizer Recipe uses paper-thin Italian ham, prosciutto, wrapped around red bell pepper which has been sauteed in olive oil with oregano and garlic and results in an attractive and very tasty appetizer recipe.


INGREDIENTS
1/3 pound prosciutto, sliced paper thin
1 tablespoon minced parsley
For Sauteed Red Peppers:
1/4 cup olive oil
5 red bell peppers, halved, seeded, deribbed, and cut into thin strips
2 tablespoons minced fresh oregano or 1 tablespoon dried
3 cloves garlic, minced


DIRECTIONS
1: Sauteed Red Peppers: Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet. When it is hot, add peppers and toss to coat all over with oil. Add the oregano and cook over moderate heat, half-covered, for 20 minutes. Add garlic and stir briskly for 30 seconds. Remove from heat and cool completely. Use immediately with prosciutto or store, in the cooking oil, covered, in refrigerator.
 
2: Layout prosciutto slices. Put 5 to 6 strips of Sauteed Red Peppers on each prosciutto slice, then roll each slice into a neat cylinder, with the tips of the peppers poking out at each end. Place rolls on a round plate, dust them with parsley, and serve.
