The only time I've used prosciutto with a lot of heat is on pizza and
it gets very crispy without being brushed with olive oil. In fact, my
intuition tells me it would take longer to crisp up if it was lubed
with oil. I still think it's a good idea and will use it for my fat
phobic hubby the next time I do something like that.
