Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lb fresh asparagus, ends trimmed
12 slice bacon, uncooked
1/2 c light brown sugar
1/2 c butter
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Divide asparagus spears into 12 bundles (3-4 pieces each). Wrap 1 piece of bacon around each bundle, starting 1/2" from bottom of the tips. Secure the bacon-wrapped asparagus with a toothpick. Arrange bundle in a shallow baking pan. Combine brown sugar and remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan; heat mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Pour mixture over asparagus bundles. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until spears have begun to wilt and bacon looks fully cooked.
