Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Prosciutto

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Lay the prosciutto slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salad

    While the prosciutto is baking, wash and dry the baby gem lettuce. Cut each head in half lengthwise and place them on a serving platter.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Cheese

    Halve the cherry tomatoes and scatter them over the lettuce. Crumble the gorgonzola cheese on top.

  4. 4

    Add Prosciutto

    Break the crispy prosciutto into pieces and sprinkle them over the salad.

  5. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle with your favorite gorgonzola dressing, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
