Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Divide prosciutto between baking sheets, laying them flat. Bake until fat turns golden and meat is darker, about 15 minutes (rotating baking sheets from top to bottom halfway through baking time). Using tongs, carefully transfer prosciutto to paper towels to drain (it will crisp as it cools). Crispy prosciutto can be used like bacon, in whole pieces or crumbled.
PROSCIUTTO CRISPS
This recipe is sponsored by Target. Salty, porky, crispy prosciutto. What's not to love about that? Very often for cocktail hour, I do a prosciutto and Parmesan plate with Aperol Spritzes. To add a little twist, I'll serve some prosciutto as is, and some crisped in the oven. Make extra crisps and have them with eggs in the morning, or crumbled on a salad or on a simple plate of buttered pasta tossed with Parmesan.

ORANGE, CHICKPEA & PROSCIUTTO SALAD
Look for a buffalo mozzarella to use in this salad, if you can. With chickpeas, prosciutto and hazelnuts, it's a riot of colour and texture

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe oranges. Look for oranges that are heavy for their size and have a deep orange color.
- If you don't have a microplane, you can use a fine grater to zest the oranges.
- To make the crispy prosciutto, cook it in a single layer in a skillet over medium heat. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the prosciutto will steam instead of crisp.
- If you don't have a skillet, you can cook the prosciutto in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the prosciutto for 10-12 minutes, or until crispy.
- Serve the salad immediately, while the prosciutto is still crispy.
