Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 2 northern pike fillets
  • 4 slices of prosciutto
  • 2 tablespoons of pesto
  • Freshly cracked pepper
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • Lemon wedges

Instructions

  • Cut each pike fillet in half to make 4 pieces. Spread pesto on one side of each piece. Sprinkle freshly cracked pepper on top.
  • Roll each piece of fish and carefully wrap with a slice of prosciutto. Secure with two toothpicks.
  • Heat oil in a non-stick skillet over medium high. Carefully cook each piece of fish to brown the prosciutto on all sides. You can remove the toothpicks halfway to three-quarters of the way through cooking when the rolls can hold their shape. Cook until the pike is cooked through.
  • Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
