Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus

Ingredients:

  • 1 bunch of fresh asparagus, tough ends trimmed
  • Thinly sliced Ben's Best prosciutto
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • Lemon zest (optional)
  • Balsamic glaze (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Take a slice of prosciutto and cut it in half lengthwise so you have two long strips.

  3. Take one strip of prosciutto and wrap it around an asparagus spear diagonally, starting from the bottom and working your way up to the tip. Repeat with the other half of prosciutto and more asparagus spears.

  4. Place the prosciutto-wrapped asparagus spears on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  5. Drizzle the asparagus with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. You can also add a touch of lemon zest for extra flavor.

  6. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 10-12 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and the prosciutto is crispy.

  7. Once done, remove from the oven and transfer the prosciutto-wrapped asparagus to a serving platter.

  8. If desired, drizzle with a bit of balsamic glaze for a sweet and tangy finish.

  9. Serve the Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus as an appetizer or a side dish. Enjoy!

This recipe combines the salty and savory flavors of prosciutto with the freshness of asparagus, creating a delightful dish that's dairy-free and full of flavor.
