Try this easy recipe for an elegant appetizer or gourmet side dish of asparagus bundles wrapped in prosciutto and topped with melted Brie.
Ingredients
- 1 pound thin asparagus spears, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 6 ounces sliced prosciutto
- 4 ounces Brie cheese, cut into 1/4-inch slices
- 3 tablespoons crushed walnuts
Directions
Step 1
Place asparagus spears in a resealable plastic bag.
Step 2
Whisk olive oil, vinegar, and mustard in a bowl. Pour over asparagus in the bag and distribute evenly. Marinate for 1 hour.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Step 4
Divide asparagus into bundles of 3 stalks each. Cut prosciutto slices in half lengthwise and lay on a cutting board. Wrap a piece of prosciutto around each bundle to create 7 or 8 bundles. Place bundles in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until asparagus is tender, 14 to 16 minutes.
Step 6
Remove dish from oven and set oven to broil. Place 1 slice of Brie cheese on top of each bundle and sprinkle with crushed walnuts. Return to the oven and broil until cheese begins to melt, about 1 minute.
Cook’s Note:
If asparagus stalks are thicker, use only 2 per bundle.
