An adventurous dish of fried polenta cakes, shrimp wrapped in prosciutto and a hazelnut liquor sauce! It is as beautiful to see as it is to eat.

Provided by PEGW

Categories     Side Dish     Grain Side Dish Recipes     Polenta Recipes

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups water
1 tablespoon butter
salt and pepper to taste
½ cup polenta
6 ounces mascarpone cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 large shrimp - peeled and deveined
1 ½ cups finely chopped toasted hazelnuts
6 (1/2 ounce) slices prosciutto
2 fluid ounces hazelnut liqueur
⅔ cup heavy cream
4 green onions, with tops flared

Steps:

  • In a medium-size pot bring water to a boil. Add butter, salt, and pepper. Mix in dry polenta and let cook until thickened, approximately 8 minutes.
  • When the polenta has thickened, gently blend mascarpone cheese into it. Remove the pan from heat. Spread polenta-cheese mixture to a 2-inch thickness on an oil-coated surface. When cool, cut a disk using a drinking glass as a cutter. Saute polenta disks in olive oil, in a non-stick skillet. Set aside. (Can be prepared in advance).
  • Coat shrimp with hazelnuts and wrap each with a slice of ham. In a skillet, saute shrimp carefully in remaining olive oil. Remove shrimp from the pan and keep them warm.
  • Pour hazelnut liquor into another skillet (or the same skillet used to saute the shrimp, cleaned). When hazelnut flavored liquor is hot (but well under the boiling point), carefully flambe (by touching the edge of the pan with the flame of a match or taper). Be careful and stand back when cooking with open flame! When flames die down, add cream and remaining hazelnuts. Lower heat and continue cooking until mixture thickens.
  • To assemble, place a polenta disk in the center of a serving dish. Arrange shrimp around the plate. Drizzle sauce mixture on top. Garnish with green onions.

JAKE'S ON THE LAKE STYLE SHRIMP WRAPPED IN PROSCIUTTO



Jake's on the Lake Style Shrimp Wrapped in Prosciutto image

This recipe supposedly is similar to the recipe used at a restaurant in California. This was from my magazine clippings,Bon Appetit I believe. Update: This does make a lot of sauce,so you might want to cut that portion of the recipe in half and also have some slices of crusty bread to dip in the extras (which is delicious). Also, if your shrimp aren't huge, you may need to use 2-3 smaller shrimp per skewer to get a nicer balance between the meat and basil.

Categories     Broil/Grill

Time 16m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

18 slices prosciutto, thin

1/3 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon fresh garlic, chopped
1 cup olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • You will also need 18 bamboo skewers for this recipe- soak them in water 30 minutes before using.
  • Set a slice of proscuitto on a work surface and place a basil leaf at one of the short ends, then top with a shrimp and roll up jelly roll style.
  • Stick the shrimp on a skewer, leaving a handle, and continue with the rest of the shrimp- one shrimp roll per skewer.
  • Heat a grill to medium-high (or preheat your broiler) and coat grill with a bit of oil so the shrimp won't stick.
  • Mix together vinegar,mustard, and garlic.
  • Gradually whisk in oil until blended and season with plenty of salt and pepper to taste- set into a small bowl.

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED SHRIMP



Prosciutto Wrapped Shrimp image

To me nothing says the holidays like appetizers, we serve them, and bring them to holiday parties. This appetizer was born out of my way to use shrimp. We live here in Fl right on the ocean and have friends that shrimp, so I am always dreaming up ways to fix shrimp

Provided by Jane Whittaker

Categories     Seafood Appetizers

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 slice prosciutto, sliced paper thin
12 large shrimp, peeled ,deveined, cooked
12 slice melon, sliced thin
12 tsp cream cheese
1 c mango, diced

2 medium jalepenos, diced
2 Tbsp fresh cilantro, diced
1/2 c sweet red peppers, diced
6 Tbsp lime juice, divided
1/2 c red onion, diced

Steps:

  • 1. Marinate the shrimp in 3 tablespoons of lime juice while you make the tropical mango salsa.
  • 2. In a bowl combine the mango, papaya, jalepenos, onions,cilantro, red peppers, and lime juice
  • 3. Take one slice of prosciutto, place a slice of melon in the middle, put a shrimp on top of that, put a teaspoon of cream cheese on top of shrimp.
  • 4. Wrap each end of prosciutto over filling, cover and refridgerate until ready to serve.
  • 5. Serve the prosciutto wrapped shrimp with the mango salsa.
