Categories     appetizer

Time 23m

Yield 4 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup balsamic vinegar
Salt
12 asparagus spears
12 thin slices prosciutto
Extra-virgin olive oil, to serve
Freshly ground black pepper
Fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Pour the vinegar into a small pot and bring it to a boil over high heat. Turn the heat to medium low and reduce the vinegar by about 1/4, or until it is thick. Let cool.
  • Put a pot of salted water over high heat. Trim the asparagus spears to that they are all the same length. Peel the bottom half of the spears with a vegetable peeler. Tie the asparagus together into a bundle using kitchen string. When the water is boiling, lower the asparagus into the pot and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. Plunge the asparagus into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. When it is completely cold, remove the spears and lay them out onto a rack to dry.
  • Roll a slice of prosciutto around each asparagus spear. Arrange them on a platter and drizzle over some olive oil. Sprinkle with some pepper and salt. Finally, dribble on some of the reduced balsamic vinegar. Serve immediately.

Asparagus is one of my favorite vegetables any way you prepare it but wrapped in prosciutto, drizzled with olive oil and baked with cheese - oh my! This dish makes a beautiful presentation!

Provided by SusieQusie

Categories     Ham

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb fresh asparagus spear, tough ends trimmed off
2 slices prosciutto, cut in 1-inch wide strips
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped roasted red peppers
1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese or 1/4 cup feta cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F.
  • Line a 15-inch X 10-inch baking pan with foil.
  • Wrap asparagus spears in bundles of 3 or 4 spears with strips of prosciutto around the middle.
  • Place bundles in a single layer on baking pan tucking under ends of prosciutto.
  • Drizzle with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper; top with roasted red peppers.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes or until asparagus is crisp tender.
  • Sprinkle with cheese and continue baking for 5 minutes or until cheese is soft.

Tips:

  • Select the right asparagus: Look for spears that are bright green and have tightly closed tips. Avoid any spears that are limp or have yellow or brown spots.
  • Trim the asparagus: Cut off the woody ends of the asparagus spears. You can do this by snapping them off or using a sharp knife.
  • Blanch the asparagus: Blanching the asparagus helps to tenderize it and preserve its color. To blanch the asparagus, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until it is tender-crisp. Remove the asparagus from the boiling water and immediately place it in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Wrap the asparagus: Lay a slice of prosciutto on a cutting board. Place an asparagus spear in the center of the prosciutto and wrap it up tightly. Secure the prosciutto with a toothpick.
  • Bake the asparagus: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the prosciutto-wrapped asparagus spears on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the prosciutto is crispy and the asparagus is heated through.
  • Serve the asparagus: Serve the prosciutto-wrapped asparagus immediately, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.

Conclusion:

Prosciutto-wrapped asparagus with cheese is a delicious and elegant appetizer or side dish. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. For example, you can use different types of cheese, such as Parmesan, mozzarella, or goat cheese. You can also add other ingredients to the filling, such as sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, or pine nuts. Prosciutto-wrapped asparagus is a versatile dish that can be served at any occasion.
