Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Butter a shallow baking dish that is long enough to hold the asparagus. Season the asparagus with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Divide the asparagus into 8 equal bundles. Arrange 2 slices of the prosciutto on a work surface so they slightly overlap each other. Place an asparagus bundle on top and roll up carefully in the prosciutto. Arrange in the prepared baking dish. Flatten the top of each bundle slightly and sprinkle with 1/4 of the seasoned bread crumbs. Drizzle with the olive oil.
- Roast in the oven until heated through and crisp, about 10 minutes. Serve at once on a platter with the sliced ham.
- 1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1/4 cup fine dried bread crumbs
- Pinch gray salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan
- To make the seasoned bread crumbs, heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Tilt the pan and then add the minced garlic and saute briefly until pale gold. Add the bread crumbs, season with salt and pepper, and lower the heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bread crumbs are toasted, about 3 minutes. Pour into a small bowl and add the parsley, lemon zest, and Parmesan. Toss well. (The crumbs keep, tightly sealed and refrigerated, for several days.)

ROASTED ASPARAGUS BUNDLES
A very pretty way to serve asparagus! NOTE: The directions state that you should roast for 25-30 minutes, although I have found that it takes much less time at that temperature, especially since we prefer our asparagus crisp-tender. I strongly suggest you begin checking your asparagus after only 10 minutes, especially if your spears aren't very thick.

ROASTED BACON-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS AND RED PEPPER BUNDLES RECIPE - (4.5/5)
Provided by ahensnest
Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Rinse asparagus and trim bottom ½" from stalks. Cut red pepper into 8 slices, lengthwise. Separate asparagus spears into bundles of two to three, place one pepper slice onto each. Starting from bottom, wrap a piece of bacon tightly around spears and pepper, ending about halfway, add another slice and continue wrapping, leaving tip of spears visible. Repeat with remaining bundles. Place on parchment lined sheet, so they are not touching. Drizzle olive oil over bundles and sprinkle with sea salt and pepper to taste. Bake in preheated oven about 15 minutes, then turn on broiler and broil for 5, or until bacon is as crisp as you like. Serve warm.
Tips for Roasting Asparagus Bundles
- Choose fresh, firm asparagus spears. Thicker spears will hold up better to roasting.
- Trim the asparagus spears by cutting off the woody ends.
- Wash the asparagus spears thoroughly and pat them dry.
- Toss the asparagus spears with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Wrap the asparagus spears in bacon or prosciutto before roasting. This will add flavor and help to keep the asparagus moist.
- Roast the asparagus spears in a preheated oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.
- Serve the roasted asparagus bundles immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
