Ingredients:

3 slices prosciutto
50g
1/4 cup butter
54g
1 onion
160g
2 garlic cloves
6g
2 tsp mustard
10g
2 tbsp sage
30g
2 cups bread crumbs
180g
2 eggs
100g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Prosciutto:
- Slice the prosciutto into small pieces. Set aside for use later.
3. Cook the Onion and Garlic:
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they become translucent and soft.
- Add the minced garlic to the onions and cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
4. Combine Ingredients:
- Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the mustard and chopped sage. Mix well.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread crumbs and the onion mixture. Mix thoroughly to ensure the bread crumbs are well coated.
- Add the beaten eggs to the mixture and stir until everything is well combined. The mixture should be moist but not too wet. If it looks too dry, you can add a splash of water or broth.
5. Form the Bites:
- Fold in the sliced prosciutto pieces evenly throughout the mixture.
- Using your hands or a small scoop, form the mixture into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
6. Bake:
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the stuffing bites are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
7. Serve:
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Enjoy your Prosciutto Stuffing Bites as a delicious appetizer or a side dish.

Tips:

- Make sure the bread crumbs are fresh for the best texture.

- Chop the onion finely to ensure it cooks evenly.

- Allow the stuffing mixture to cool slightly before adding eggs to prevent cooking them prematurely.

- For a crispier texture, toast the bread crumbs lightly before mixing them with the other ingredients.

- Feel free to experiment with additional herbs like rosemary or thyme for extra flavor.

- Serve the bites with a dipping sauce like a mustard aioli to complement the flavors.

Prosciutto stuffing bites are a crowd-pleasing appetizer that combines savory, rich flavors in a perfectly portioned size. Easy to prepare and bursting with flavor, they'll quickly become a favorite at any celebration. Serve them hot to ensure the best taste experience, and don't be surprised when your guests come back for seconds!
