Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, and minced garlic. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

03

Step

Add the asparagus spears to the bowl and toss thoroughly to ensure they are evenly coated with the lemon-garlic mixture. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

04

Step

Arrange the asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

05

Step

Bake for 8 minutes, or until the asparagus is crisp-tender and slightly browned. (Cook time: 8 minutes)

06

Step

Remove from the oven and allow the asparagus to cool to room temperature. (Cooling time: approximately 15 minutes)

07

Step

While the asparagus cools, cut each prosciutto slice in half lengthwise. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

08

Step

Spread approximately 1 teaspoon of soft goat cheese onto each strip of prosciutto. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

09

Step

Wrap each goat cheese-covered prosciutto strip in a spiral around an asparagus spear, ensuring the entire spear is covered. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

10

Step

Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture. Alternatively, cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours until ready to serve.

For a richer flavor, use a flavored goat cheese, such as honey or herb-infused.
If you don't have prosciutto, thinly sliced ham or speck can be substituted.
To prevent the goat cheese from melting too much, ensure the asparagus is completely cool before wrapping.
A balsamic glaze drizzle adds a touch of sweetness and complexity to the finished dish.

    Instead of goat cheese, I used a whipped feta and it was also delicious!

    I found that grilling the asparagus instead of baking it added a lovely smoky flavor.
