Step 1
Halve 1 cantaloupe and scoop out the seeds with a spoon, about 2 minutes.
Step 2
Cut each half into 4 wedges, then slice the rind away from each piece.
Step 3
Drape 1 slice of prosciutto loosely over each melon wedge so it folds around the fruit.
Step 4
Grind the 1/4 tsp black pepper over the top and serve right away, while the melon is still cold.
