Categories     Polenta

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right shrimp. Medium-sized shrimp (21-25 count per pound) are ideal for this recipe. They are large enough to hold up to the prosciutto wrapping, but not so large that they become difficult to eat.
  • Cook the shrimp properly. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery. Cook the shrimp just until they turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Use high-quality prosciutto. Prosciutto that is too salty or dry will overpower the shrimp. Look for prosciutto that is thinly sliced and has a delicate flavor.
  • Wrap the shrimp tightly. The prosciutto should be wrapped tightly around the shrimp so that it doesn't fall off during cooking.
  • Cook the shrimp until the prosciutto is crispy. This will give the shrimp a delicious crunch and help to hold the prosciutto in place.

Conclusion:

Jake's on the Lake-Style Shrimp Wrapped in Prosciutto is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. The shrimp are cooked to perfection and wrapped in crispy prosciutto, making them a delightful treat that everyone will love. Serve these shrimp with your favorite dipping sauce, such as a creamy horseradish sauce or a zesty lemon-butter sauce.
