Garnish with fresh basil and grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Serve immediately with extra cheese on the side.
For an extra layer of flavor, try using garlic-infused olive oil. A splash of balsamic glaze can also add a touch of sweetness and acidity. Feel free to add other vegetables such as zucchini or bell peppers.
Consider grilling the prosciutto for a crispier texture and more intense flavor.
