Number Of Ingredients 4

8 or 9 asparagus spears, depending on size
1/2 pkg frozen phyllo dough sheets (16 ou pkg), thawed
1/4 c butter, melted
1/4 c finely grated parmesan

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat over to 375.
  • 2. Snap off tough ends of asparagus. Unwrap phyllo and cut the stack into half lengthwise. Reserve 1 stack for later use. Cover the phyllo with a damp towel to keep if from drying out.

Place each piece, seam side down, on a baking sheet.* Brush with more melted butter and sprinkle with more Parmesan. Repeat until all the asparagus spears are used up. Place baking sheet in oven and bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. When done let cool and drain on paper towels.
