Porkitos (Crispy Prosciutto Chips)

Porkitos (Crispy Prosciutto Chips) by Michelle Tam / Nom Nom Paleo https://nomnompaleo.com

I prefer prosciutto chips to bacon bits because they cook evenly and there aren’t any unappetizing flabby parts. These “Porkitos” also add a terrific salty crunch to creamy soups, salads, and purées.

Or you can just stuff your face with them.

‘Cause really – who doesn’t like crispy, porky chips?

Here’s what to gather to make a tray of crunchy Porkitos (feeds 1-2 people):

  • 3 ounces of thinly sliced Prosciutto di Parma (Try to get freshly-sliced prosciutto from the deli counter and make sure they cut it paper thin.)

Here’s how to make ’em:

Preheat the oven to 350°F with the rack in the middle.

Line a rimmed baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper, and place the prosciutto in a single layer on top. Don’t overcrowd the swine or it won’t crisp properly.

Once the oven is ready, place the the tray in the oven.

Bake for 10-15 minutes (depending on the thickness of your prosciutto slices) or until crunchy. Watch your chips like a hawk to make sure they don’t burn. Burnt chips make Nom Nom wanna smash things.

Transfer the chips to a wire rack to cool.

They’ll actually get crunchier as they cool, so it’s better to err on the side of under-baking them. Look – like stained glass (only swine-ier)!

With Brussels sprouts chips, kale chips, mushroom chips, and now PORKITOS, who needs boring old potato chips?

Porkitos (Crispy Prosciutto Chips)

I prefer crispy prosciutto chips to bacon bits because they cook evenly and there aren’t any unappetizing flabby parts. These “Porkitos” also add a terrific salty crunch to creamy soups, salads, and purées—or you can just stuff your face with them. ’Cause really—who doesn’t like crispy, porky chips?

Ingredients

  • 3 ounces of very thinly sliced Prosciutto di Parma

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F with the rack in the middle.
  2. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper, and place the prosciutto in a single layer on top. Don’t overcrowd the swine or it won’t crisp properly!
  3. Once the oven is ready, place the the tray in the oven. Bake for 10-15 minutes (depending on the thickness of your prosciutto slices) or until crunchy. Watch your chips like a hawk to make sure they don’t burn.
  4. Transfer the chips to a wire rack to cool. (They’ll actually get crunchier as they cool, so it’s better to err on the side of under-baking them.)
