Method
Preparation
Prepare the Sauce
In a small saucepan, heat the tomato sauce over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Once heated, remove from heat and set aside.
Prepare the Cheese
While the sauce is heating, shred or tear the mozzarella cheese into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Prepare the Basil and Prosciutto
Rinse the fresh basil leaves under cold water, pat dry with a paper towel, and set aside. Take the prosciutto di parma slices and cut them into strips or leave them whole as desired.
Assembly
Assemble the Dish
On a serving platter or individual plates, start by spreading a layer of tomato sauce evenly across the base. Layer the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce. Arrange the fresh basil leaves over the cheese.
Add the Prosciutto
Finally, place the prosciutto di parma strips over the basil. Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the entire dish to enhance flavor.
