Step by Step Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Step 2

Place prosciutto on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake until just crispy, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool. Break into 12 pieces; save for garnish.

Step 3

Then combine pecans and garlic in a food processor; pulse until finely chopped.

Step 4

Add basil, Parmesan, and zest.

Step 5

Pour in oil slowly while processing until mostly smooth, stopping to scrape down sides periodically.

Step 6

Cut eggs in half lengthwise, remove yolks to a small bowl and set egg whites aside. Using a fork, mash together yolks and mayonnaise.

Step 7

Add pesto, lemon juice, and salt; stir well to combine.

Step 8

Spoon or pipe egg yolk mixture into egg white halves.

Step 9

Stick a piece of crispy prosciutto into each egg; garnish with crushed red pepper and additional basil, if desired.
