Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 lb asparagus, fresh trimmed 4 to 5 inches long tips
extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
a few grinds black pepper & salt to tast
garlic and herb seasoning to tast (optional)
1 lb 8 slices center cut bacon or pancetta
chopped chives or scallions, (optional garnish)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven, if using, to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat asparagus spears in extra-virgin olive oil. Season the asparagus with black pepper salt and garlic. Take a quick count of the spear tips. Divide the total number by four. Gather that number of spears and use a slice of bacon to wrap the bundle and secure the spears together. Repeat with remaining ingredients. For oven preparation, place bundles on slotted broiler pan. Bake 12 - 15 minutes.
  • 2. To grill, place bundles on hot grill and cover. Cook 10 to 12 minutes until bacon is crisp and asparagus bundles are tender.
