Time 20m

Yield 12 Bacon wrapped spears, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups zesty Italian dressing (I use Kraft)
12 asparagus spears
12 slices bacon (if your bacon is thick, precook for 5 to ten minutes before wrapping)
2 pinches pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
24 toothpicks (add a few extra in case the break!)

Steps:

  • PREP.
  • Wash then cut the asparagus stalks down a bit (usually 1-2 inches) to remove the tougher parts.
  • Put the asparagus into a large ziploc bag and pour the Zesty Italian Dressing over the asparagus. Make sure all of the spears are going the same way. This will make it easier to mix around in the sauce.
  • After mincing the garlic (bottled minced garlic works too), put it all onto the asparagus in the bag.
  • Roll the dressing and garlic around in the bag and leave in the fridge for at least two hours to 4 hours, longer will let the flavor really get into the asparagus.
  • After marinating is done, pull the asparagus out and wrap, the long way, with a bacon strip. Use a toothpick on the top and bottom of the asparagus to keep it on during cooking.
  • Drop a couple pinches of pepper to taste on the wrapped spears.
  • COOKING - Times depend on thickness of the Asparagus Spear and Bacon.
  • With the temp around 350 for 3 to 4 minutes.Cover closed.
  • Turn each spear over and resume grilling for another 4 minutes. Closed.
  • Move the spears to the top rack and resume cooking for another three to four minutes. Again, with the cover closed.
  • SERVING.
  • Put it on a plate and eat with your favorite main course. Enjoy!

JAPANESE BACON-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS SKEWERS



Japanese Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus Skewers image

Every izakaya in Japan offers this yakitori on its menu. Bacon-wrapped asparagus is the perfect combination; the pork adds so much flavor to the grilled spears.

Provided by Harris Salat

Time 35m

Yield Makes 12 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pound bacon, thinly sliced and cut into 3-inch strips
1 pound asparagus (preferably jumbo), trimmed and cut into 1½-inch pieces
1 lemon, quartered

Steps:

  • Wrap a strip of bacon around each piece of asparagus. Skewer these rolled pieces (about 4 per skewer) so they cover about 4 inches of skewer.
  • Preheat a grill to medium-hot. Grill for about 6 minutes, turning the skewers about every 2 minutes as they brown. Don't hesitate to shift skewers as you grill, especially if you notice some skewers browning too fast over a hot spot; trade them with skewers grilling over a less hot part. The bacon will crisp up and sizzle when the skewers are ready. Squeeze lemon juice on the skewers, and serve immediately.
