This is one of those embarrassingly easy recipes that I make dozens of times a year. As soon as spring rolls around and asparagus comes into season, this becomes my go-to appetizer and pot luck contribution. It's great straight out of the oven, at room temperature, and even chilled; so you really can't go wrong.

Ingredients

1 cup balsamic vinegar
freshly ground black pepper
kosher salt
2 tsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp. dijon mustard
4 oz. thinly sliced prosciutto
1 pound asparagus, woody ends trimmed

Method

01

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet.
02

Brush each slice of prosciutto lightly with the dijon mustard, and wrap tightly around 3-4 spears of asparagus. Lay each bundle seam-side-down on the baking sheet.
03

Drizzle lightly with oil, then sprinkle the asparagus very lightly with salt. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
04

Bake 10-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and cooked-through, and the asparagus is slightly browned and crispy.
05

Before serving, drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
