This is an unbelievably simple week night dinner that tastes like you are eating at a five star Italian Restaurant. Sometimes it pays to have a Sicilian in the family.
We tend to have most of these ingredients in the house most of the time. Pickled artichokes are something we always keep on hand. Not only are they delicious, they are very versatile. They can be used in so many different things, from dip to main dishes.
Here they star with the prosciutto to create an amazing dinner.
