Ingredients
- 1 pound asparagus stalks
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 8 trips Bacon
- 1/3 cup brown sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
- Wash and trim tough, woody ends of asparagus by bending one of the stalks towards the bottom until it snaps. Cut remaining asparagus to the same length.
- Drizzle the asparagus with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Divide the asparagus into 8 groups (usually 3-4 spears) and wrap each group with a piece of bacon. Set them seam side down on the baking sheet. Repeat using all of the asparagus and bacon. For a salty-sweet finish, you can sprinkle the brown sugar over the bacon before baking.
- Bake for 22 to 28 minutes until the bacon is cooked through and the asparagus is tender-crisp. Serve warm.
Notes
- Make-ahead: You can assemble and even bake up to 3 days in advance, then bake or reheat just before serving.
