Ingredients
- 12 asparagus spears trimmed
- 3 ounces prosciutto each strip cut in half
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 4 tablespoons green onion chopped
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet pan by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying generously with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil.
- Blanch the asparagus by dropping it into boiling water for 2 minutes. Then, remove from the boiling water and place it in an ice bath. Drain well and pat dry with a paper towel. Set aside
- Make the cream cheese mixture by mixing cream cheese, green onion, and minced garlic.
- Spread cream cheese mixture over each halved prosciutto slice.
- Wrap 2-3 spears of asparagus in a slice of prosciutto with the cream cheese side touching the asparagus.
- Place asparagus bundles in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, then spray lightly with cooking spray.
- Bake for 15 minutes until asparagus is tender.
Notes
- Resist the urge to add salt to this recipe. Prosciutto is very salty!
- You can use thin slice bacon instead of prosciutto.
- This recipe is best in the Spring when asparagus is in season!
