Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus with Goat Cheese.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C), setting the stage for a delicious dish.
Step 2
In a spacious bowl, combine fresh lemon juice, rich olive oil, and fragrant minced garlic, creating a zesty dressing that will elevate your asparagus.
Step 3
Next, introduce the trimmed asparagus to the bowl, giving it a gentle toss until each spear is beautifully coated in that vibrant mixture.
Step 4
Now, lay the asparagus out in a baking pan, ensuring they’re arranged in a single layer for even cooking.
Step 5
Pop the pan into your preheated oven and let the asparagus bake for about 8 minutes, or until they reach that perfect crisp-tender texture.
Step 6
Once they’re done, take them out and allow the asparagus to cool to room temperature for around 15 minutes—this is a great time to savor the delightful aroma wafting through your kitchen.
Step 7
While the asparagus cools, take each slice of prosciutto and cut it in half lengthwise, preparing for a savory wrap.
Step 8
Spread about a teaspoon of creamy goat cheese onto each piece of prosciutto, adding a touch of richness.
Step 9
Now comes the fun part: wrap each prosciutto slice around an asparagus spear in a lovely spiral, creating a beautiful bite-sized treat.
Step 10
You can serve these immediately for a warm, delightful appetizer, or if you prefer, cover them and pop them in the fridge until you’re ready to enjoy.
Step 11
Either way, you’re in for a treat that’s sure to impress!.
