Avocado Wrapped in Prosciutto image

Adapted from BHG "Holiday Appetizers" magazine. The dressing can be made ahead and kept in the fridge, but don't prepare the avocados until just before serving or they will turn brown.

Time 15m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 teaspoons lemon juice
2 fresh garlic cloves, minced, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, minced, to taste
1/8 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper, to taste
2 avocados
3 ounces very thinly sliced prosciutto, cut into 16 strips

Steps:

  • Combine oil,lemon juice,garlic, oregano, and pepper in a container with a tight lid (such as a jar) and set aside.
  • Cut avocados into halves, remove pit, and peel each half carefully.
  • Slice each avocado half into 4 wedges and wrap a proscuitto strip around each in the center.
  • Shake the dressing if the ingredients have settled and test for flavor-adjust seasonings if needed (although proscuitto is often very salty- be careful not to add salt unless you really like things very salty).
  • Set on a serving platter and drizzle with some of the dressing (as much or as little as desired).
  • Serve immediately as avocados brown quickly once cut.

These were a little too rich for my taste, but I think that's just because I used too much cream cheese.

I had some trouble getting the prosciutto to stick to the avocado, but I eventually got it to work.

This was a delicious and easy appetizer to make! The avocado and prosciutto complemented each other perfectly, and the balsamic glaze added a nice touch of sweetness.
