Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces asparagus spears
- 8 pieces prosciutto slices
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears and divide them into 8 groups (3 spears per bundle).
Wrap each group of 3 asparagus spears with a slice of prosciutto, starting at one end and winding it around diagonally until you reach the other end. Place the bundles seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each asparagus bundle with the honey glaze. Make sure to brush both sides for maximum flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and the prosciutto is crisp. Rotate the baking sheet halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.
Remove the bundles from the oven and let them cool slightly before transferring to a serving platter.
Serve warm as a side dish or appetizer, and enjoy the perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors!
