Directions

An easy to prepare and elegant finger food! Artichoke hearts are wrapped in paper thin slices of prosciutto and then marinated in an orange-thyme imbued olive oil. The salt-cured Italian ham complements the bland flavor of the artichoke hearts. 1. Wrap each artichoke heart in a slice of prosciutto and secure with a toothpick.

2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, thyme, orange peel, and pepper. Pour the dressing over the roll-ups and let marinate 1 to 2 hours or as much as overnight.

3. Serve at room temperature.

12 to 16 roll-ups
