For enhanced flavor, consider marinating the asparagus in a touch of olive oil, lemon juice, and freshly ground black pepper before wrapping with prosciutto. If your prosciutto is particularly thick, you may need to adjust the baking time slightly to ensure it becomes sufficiently crisp. A sprinkle of freshly grated Parmesan cheese or a drizzle of balsamic glaze can add a delightful finishing touch.

Aug 25, 2022I found that using foil made the prosciutto steam rather than crisp, parchment paper is a must!
