Vegetable - Asparagus - Grilled with Wrapped Prosciutto

By Pascento96

Ingredients

• 1 pound asparagus spears
• 8 slices prosciutto

Preparation

Step 1

Heat grill or grill pan to medium-high.
Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil.
Trim asparagus of tough ends. Add salt and the asparagus to the water and blanch for 2 minutes. Remove from the water and place into an ice water bath to cool. Once cooled, pat dry with paper towels, drizzle with a touch of extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Divide the asparagus into 4 piles and roll 2 layered slices of prosciutto around each pile to form bundles. Grill 7 to 8 minutes until prosciutto is crisp and spears are tender.
