Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and trim the woody ends of the asparagus spears.
Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Wrap each asparagus spear with a slice of prosciutto, starting at the bottom and working your way to the top, leaving the tip exposed.
Place the wrapped asparagus spears on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure they are spaced apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender-crisp and the prosciutto is crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before transferring to a serving platter.
Sprinkle with lemon zest before serving. Enjoy!
