Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the prosciutto on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes or until crispy. Let cool. Break into 24 shards. Can be made 1 day ahead. Store in a food storage bag at room temperature.
Remove the yolks from the eggs and place in a medium mixing bowl. Place the whites on a serving platter. Mash the yolks into a fine crumble using a fork. Add the flesh from the avocados, mayonnaise, lime zest and juice, salt, pepper, and hot sauce. Mix well. Spoon or pipe the filling into the egg whites (feel free to over-stuff them, as you will have a lot of filling). Sprinkle the chives over the tops of the egg yolk mixture. Can be made the night before – cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
Before serving, stick one prosciutto shard into each egg.
