Instructions

• Trim the woody ends from the asparagus.
• Wrap each asparagus spear with a half slice of prosciutto.
• Drizzle olive oil over the wrapped spears, season with salt and pepper, and roast in a preheated oven at 400F (200C) for 10-12 minutes.
• Serve warm.

Notes

Chef's Tip: Choose asparagus spears of similar thickness so the whole tray roasts evenly, and don't overcrowd the pan or the prosciutto will steam instead of crisping. Keto Swap: none needed - this recipe is naturally keto as written. Skip any breadcrumb coating some recipes add; the prosciutto alone gives you all the crisp texture you need.
