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.
