- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
- 4 scallions, white parts finely chopped and green parts thinly sliced on an angle, divided
- 1 Fresno chili pepper, finely chopped, or 1 1/2 teaspoons ground red pepper
- Juice of 1/2 lemon

Preparation
Heat a grill or grill pan to medium.
Combine the EVOO, scallion whites, chili pepper and lemon juice in a medium size bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Wrap each shrimp with a slice of prosciutto and thread onto a skewer.
Grill the shrimp until firm and opaque, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with the scallion greens and another squeeze of lemon juice.
