For the seasoned bread crumbs:
1-1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil or garlic oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 cup fine dried bread crumbs
Pinch gray salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Unsalted butter for baking dish
1 large bunch asparagus, about 1 pound, trimmed to even lengths and cooked for 4 minutes in boiling, salted water
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Gray salt and freshly ground pepper
8 thin slices prosciutto

Steps:

  • To make the seasoned bread crumbs, heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the garlic and sauté briefly until pale gold. Add the bread crumbs, season with salt and pepper, and lower the heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bread crumbs are toasted, about 3 minutes. Pour into a small bowl and add the parsley, lemon zest, and Parmesan. Toss well. (The crumbs keep, tightly sealed and refrigerated, for several days.)

  • Divide the asparagus into 4 equal bundles. Arrange 2 slices of the prosciutto on a work surface so they slightly overlap each other. Place an asparagus bundle on top and roll up carefully in the prosciutto. Arrange in the prepared baking dish. Flatten the top of each bundle slightly and sprinkle with one-fourth of the seasoned bread crumbs.
