Ingredients

• 1 pound asparagus spears
• 6 slices prosciutto slices
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (optional), grated

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash and trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears. Group the asparagus into bundles of 5-6 spears each.

Step 3

Lay a slice of prosciutto on a flat surface. Place one asparagus bundle at one end of the prosciutto and roll tightly to wrap the vegetables.

Step 4

Repeat with the remaining bundles and arrange them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the bundles. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder for seasoning.

Step 6

Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and the prosciutto is crisp.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the bundles for added brightness. If desired, sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese for extra flavor.

Step 8

Serve the roasted asparagus bundles warm as a delightful side dish or appetizer.
