Shrimp, Basil & Prosciutto Bundles

Number of Servings: 
4
Ingredients: 
1 pound large U-15 shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon honey
2 garlic cloves, minced
Pinch of salt
3 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
15 basil leaves
Instructions: 

In a bowl, gently combine the shrimp, olive oil, lemon juice, honey, garlic, and salt and marinate for 5 minutes. Cut the prosciutto into strips, 6 inches long by 1-1/2 inches wide. Lay out each prosciutto strip and top with a basil leaf. Place the shrimp at one end and roll up so each shrimp is wrapped in the prosciutto and basil. Insert a toothpick through the shrimp to hold together. Repeat with the remaining prosciutto, basil leaves, and shrimp. Preheat the grill to medium-high. Coat the grill or a metal grill basket with nonstick cooking spray. Reduce the heat to medium and cook the shrimp bundles 2 to 3 minutes per side until cooked through. Serve immediately.
