I had seen this a few times before and I thought that I would give it a try. I don't like a asparagus, but with some good prosciutto, the asparagus is excellent. Prosciutto is already pretty salty, so just to be safe, I wouldn't salt the asparagus until its on your plate. Prosciutto is basically fancy Italian bacon.
Ingredients:
1/2 lb asparagus
1/4 lb thinly sliced prosciutto
salt
pepper
olive oil
Directions:
1. Break the ends off of the asparagus, keeping the tips.
2. Wrap about 7 or 8 of the asparagus in each strip of prosciutto, repeating with each group of asparagus.
3. Drizzle some olive oil into a ten-inch skillet, and turn it up to medium-high.
4. Place three of the bunches into the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes on each side.
5. Repeat with the rest of the bunches, drizzling in some olive oil in-between batches.
6. Hit it with a little olive oil and pepper.
7. Enjoy!
