Shrimp Saltimbocca

Shrimp Saltimbocca - This dish was fabulous.  Baking it takes away a lot of the calories, let's just pretend we didn't make a brown butter sauce to dip them in!  To make this dish you will need:
  • 1 pound shrimp, shelled and deviened
  • * small sage leaves
  • 3.5 ounces prosciutto, cut into 4-6 X 1 inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 6 sage leaves
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 3/4 cup dry white wine
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice (~1/2 lemon)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • salt and pepper to taste
  1. Turn on the oven to 425 degrees.  Spray a baking sheet with Pam.  Wrap the shrimp up in the prosciutto along with one small sage leaf, put the shrimp seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  2. Cook in the oven until the shrimp turn pink and the prosciutto browns, about 10 -15 minutes.
  3. In the meantime, melt the butter in the pan, add the sage leaves and cook until the just start to change a darker color, and set aside on paper towels.
  4. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about a minute.
  5. Add the wine to the pan, deglaze, simmer until it has reduced by half, about 3-5 minutes, add the lemon juice and butter and remove from heat stirring in the butter as it melts.
  6. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste, crumble the fried sage leaves and mix them in.
  7. Serve the shrimp along with the dipping sauce and enjoy!
