Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

24 spears fresh asparagus about 1½ lbs. (*See Cook's Note)
Drizzle olive oil
Drizzle balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
24 slices prosciutto
12 - 6 inch bamboo skewers soaked in cold water for 1 hour
Tony Roma's BBQ Baby Back Ribs

Steps:

  • Trim the ends off of the asparagus spears and place in a large bowl or pan and cover with cold water and let stand for 1 hour. This will allow the asparagus to absorb a little moisture and stay crisp & moist when grilling. Drain asparagus. Drizzle asparagus with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Not too much just a little, add minced garlic and season to taste with freshly ground black pepper. Gently mix to evenly coat the asparagus. Lay a slice of prosciutto vertically (short end at the bottom) on a flat work surface. Place one seasoned asparagus spear across the middle of the prosciutto at the bottom end and roll up the asparagus tightly in the prosciutto. Repeat with remaining asparagus. Line up 4 prosciutto wrapped asparagus spears.
  • Skewer the 4 spears together, 2 skewers per group of 4 wrapped asparagus.
  • This will make it easier to grill the asparagus. Repeat until you have 6 skewers of 4. They end up looking like little rafts of prosciutto wrapped asparagus.
  • Preheat grill to medium high 450-550° F. Cook asparagus until tender and prosciutto crisps, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Remove from grill, drizzle with a little extra olive oil and balsamic vinegar and serve immediately with grilled Tony Roma's BBQ Baby Back Ribs.

I love that this recipe is so versatile. You can add different herbs and spices to the asparagus to change the flavor. I also like to add different cheeses to the prosciutto wrap.

I've made this recipe with both green and white asparagus and both are delicious. The white asparagus is a little more tender, but the green asparagus has a more robust flavor.

I love this recipe! The asparagus is always cooked perfectly and the prosciutto adds a nice salty flavor. I also like to add a little bit of garlic powder to the asparagus before grilling.
