Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus

Give your asparagus a savory twist with bacon. It’s a simple dish packed with flavor that pairs perfectly with any meat.

Ingredients

  • Fresh asparagus
  • Peppered bacon
  • Your favorite cooking oil
  • Your seasonings of choice

Directions

1) Rinse, drain and cut off the thicker parts of each stem. Pat dry.

2) Take 4 to 5 pieces of asparagus and bunch them together. Wrap with 1 or 2 slices of bacon according to the size of the bacon strip.

3) Rub each bunch lightly with oil. Add seasonings.

4) Cook until bacon is done and the asparagus is tender.

5) Remove from heat and serve immediately. Pair great with any meat!

You’ll probably find the thinner the asparagus, the faster and easier it cooks. Thicker, heavier stalks are usually bitter. The thinner the stalks, the better they usually taste!
