Description

Directions

• Wash and trim the asparagus spears (See Note 1)
• Cut prosciutto strips into two halves lengthways, ending up with 12 strips.
• Place each prosciutto strip on a cutting board at a 45 degree angle. Place one of the sage leaves in the center then an asparagus spear on top of the meat, perpendicular to it. Wrap and roll the asparagus spear in a spiral like a candy cane stripe up to the top of the spear, allowing the tip to still show. Continue with the others and refrigerate for 10 minutes. I found this helps the prosciutto adhere and stay on.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet and sauté wrapped asparagus spears for 1-2 minutes on each side until prosciutto is brown and crispy. Season with freshly ground black pepper and serve.
