Salty, crisp strips of thick-cut prosciutto partner with garlic in this simple side dish.
Ingredients
- 2 slices prosciutto, (about 2 oz/60 g total)
- 1 tsp (5 mL) vegetable oil

- Pinch each salt and pepper
Preparation
Slice prosciutto crosswise into thin strips. Brush large nonstick skillet with oil; heat over medium-high heat. Sauté prosciutto until crisp, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add garlic; cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add beans, salt and pepper; toss to combine and heat through if necessary.
