Description
Our delicious Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus recipe is a super easy side dish that is crisp and full of flavor!
Ingredients
Scale
- 6oz prosciutto
- 12 stalks of asparagus
Instructions
- Preheat oven to broil on high.
- Cut off the tough ends of the asparagus and rinse with cold water.
- Take one piece of prosciutto, fold it in half, then wrap around an asparagus stalk; repeat until all of the prosciutto slices and individual spears of asparagus are used. Place on cookie sheet.
- Place under the broiler, one spot below the top in the oven.
- Let broil for 4-5 minutes or until prosciutto is a bit crispy and asparagus are soft, watch carefully to ensure nothing burns (every oven is a bit different). If they aren’t done after 5 minutes, continue broiling in 30 second increments until fully cooked (remember the prosciutto doesn’t need to be cooked through, it is already edible as-is, but the asparagus needs to be cooked so it isn’t too crispy).
- Remove and let cool slightly. Serve and enjoy.
Notes
- Make Ahead: these are a great addition to any brunch and could easily be prepped ahead, placed in an airtight container, and stored in the fridge until you want to cook it.
