Prosciutto String Bean Bundles

Perfect Side Dish...

String Beans (cleaned with stem removed)
Prosciutto (sliced thin)
Salt/ Pepper
Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Bring a large pot of water to a boil
Once boiling add salt and string  beans return to a boil
Cook for 8 minutes
Remove from water and rinse under cold water for 3-4 minutes
Pat string beans dry
Take four string beans and wrap with a slice of prosciutto
Place bundle on serving dish
Continue until all string beans are wrapped with prosciutto
Lightly drizzle all bundles with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a few grinds of pepper

***This dish can be made ahead of time.  The bundles can be placed in the refrigerator without the Extra Virgin Olive Oil and pepper - do this step right before serving.
