Preparation

Step 1

Preheat grill to medium heat.

Cut prosciutto slices in half; spread with cheese. Wrap a prosciutto piece around each asparagus spear; secure ends with toothpicks.

Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack.

Grill, covered, over medium heat for 6-8 minutes or until prosciutto is crisp, turning once. Discard toothpicks.
