Happy 4th of July!
After a string of posts reminiscing about some memorable events Four Seasons Catering has been a part of, we are looking forward to creating new memories and new friends, especially on tomorrow's holiday. One of our family's favorite appetizers is bacon-wrapped asparagus - enjoy them with your loved ones, and here's to making this next memory extraordinary!
Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 lbs asparagus spears, trimmed 4 - 5 inches long with tips
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
- One slice of center cut bacon or pancetta per spear (roughly 15)
- Fresh ground black pepper
- Fresh ground salt
Directions:
- Wash and trim asparagus spears. Lightly coat spears in extra-virgin olive oil. Season the asparagus with fresh ground black pepper and salt. Wrap a slice of bacon or pancetta around each spear, leaving tip exposed.
- Grill, uncovered, for 4 - 6 minutes on each side until bacon is crisp and asparagus is tender.
