Ingredients
- 24 spears asparagus
- 8 slices Prosciutto (about 120g Or 4.5 Oz)
- 4 ounces, weight Goat cheese
- Olive oil, as needed
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Drizzle olive oil on a baking sheet and set aside.
Rinse the asparagus and cut off the tough ends, about 1 to 2 inches.
Lay 1 piece of prosciutto flat on a cutting board. Place 3 asparagus tips on the prosciutto near one end. Spread about 1/2 ounce of goat cheese over the asparagus where it overlaps the asparagus and start rolling the prosciutto tightly around the spears. Repeat 7 more times for the remaining pieces of prosciutto.
Place prosciutto-wrapped bunches of asparagus on an oiled baking sheet, seam side down. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and season with a little salt and pepper.
Bake for 10 minutes. Broil and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Remove the prosciutto-wrapped asparagus from the oven and serve immediately. If desired, garnish with freshly grated Parmesan.
