My husband clipped this recipe from a magazine about 7 years ago, which is something he had never done before. When he brought it home, I agreed to make it for him, and it was great. Since then, I have served it as a first course at many holiday meals. You can also serve it as an hors d'oeuvres.

Time 50m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

24 medium asparagus spears (about 1-1/2 lbs.)
1/4 cup boiling water
1/2 lb imported prosciutto (12 slices)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Trim asparagus evenly. Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise.
  • Place asparagus and boiling water in a large roasting pan and cover tightly with foil.
  • Stream asparagus for about 10 to 15 minutes, until tender. Remove asparagus and dry on paper towels. Drain water from roasting pan and dry.
  • On a sheet of waxed paper, lay 1 strip of prosciutto. Sprinkle with about 1 t. Parmesan cheese. Place one asparagus spear at 1 end and roll up, slightly overlapping proscuitto as your roll, and covering most of the spear. Repeat with remaining asparagus, prosciutto, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Place wrapped asparagus in roasting pan and roast for about 10 minutes, until prosciutto just begins to brown.

So good! My kids loved it, which is amazing because they don't like vegetables.

I'm not a big fan of asparagus, but this recipe changed my mind! The prosciutto and balsamic vinegar really made the asparagus вкусным.

This recipe was a great way to use up some leftover asparagus. I didn't have any prosciutto, so I used bacon instead. It was still delicious!

The asparagus was a little overcooked for my taste, but the prosciutto was cooked perfectly. The balsamic vinegar reduction was a great addition.

This recipe was so easy to follow and the results were amazing! The asparagus was tender and flavorful, and the prosciutto added a nice crispy texture. I loved the balsamic vinegar reduction, it really brought the dish together.

Roasted Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus was a hit! The asparagus was perfectly cooked, still slightly crisp with a bit of a bite. The prosciutto wrapped around the asparagus added a nice salty and savory flavor. Will definitely make this again!
