Prosciutto-Wrapped Persimmons
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 fuyu or hachiya persimmons, each one peeled and cut into eighths
- 24 small rosemary sprigs
- 24 very thin slices of prosciutto (about 1/2 pound)
- Preheat the oven to 375 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a work surface, fold each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise to form a thin strip.
- Place a persimmon wedge at one end of each strip and roll it up in the prosciutto.
- Using a toothpick, poke a hole in the wrapped persimmon and slip in a sprig of rosemary.
- Place the wrapped wedges on the baking sheet and brush them lightly with olive oil.
- Roast for about 20 minutes, until the prosciutto-wrapped persimmons are lightly browned and sizzling.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
