My First Food Network Recipe: Pancetta- or Prosciutto-Wrapped Shrimp with Sage

This is a recipe of my moms so I thought it would be good luck to make it for my first pilot/demo of "30 Minute Meals" at Food Network. Other than setting Emeril’s set on fire accidentally, it all went well and everyone really liked my food.
Serve alongside The Ultimate Springtime Risotto

Ingredients

12 6- to 8-count shrimp or prawns, tail-on and deveined
1 lemon
EVOO – Extra Virgin Olive Oil, for liberal drizzling plus 1 tablespoon
Sea salt and black pepper
12 large sage leaves
12 slices pancetta or thinly sliced prosciutto

Yields: 4

Preparation

Rinse and dry shrimp. Dress the shrimp with the juice of 1/2 lemon; cut remainder of lemon into small wedges. Drizzle liberally with EVOO and season with a little sea salt and some black pepper. Place a sage leaf down the back of each shrimp where it has been deveined and then wrap carefully and snugly with pancetta or prosciutto. Repeat with remaining shrimp.

Heat 1 tablespoon EVOO in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook to pink and firm, and until pancetta or ham is crisp, 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally. Serve with lemon wedges alongside.
