I LOVE bacon wrapped asparagus and do them every chance I have on the grill. Janky said that he didn't have this at his disposal, so I didn't suggest, but yes, this is the winner so far.

Stove top is easy too. Med-high, heat oil, throw them in, add S&P, shake around do there all coated. Cook until they get charred. It's very easy and takes less than 10min

Drizzle olive oil, sea salt & pepper, and teriyaki. Wrap in foil and put on cookie sheet in the oven on 350 for 12 minutes

Take three of the spears and bind together with a little cream cheese. Wrap with proscuitto Place on sheet pan in a 450F oven for about fifteen minutes. Enjoy.

Cooks Il says get the roasting pan preheated in the oven. Throw the oiled asparagus on that hot pan and slap in oven at 400 or 450 (can't recall) and cook until done. Don't shake the pan. The hot pan gets good browning on the bottom, and rest will cook through.

Drop them in salted boiling water for about 3-4 minutes until just softened, plate, salt and pepper and butter.

If you can make hollandaise make it and serve over along with a soft boiled egg.

Be sure to prep the asparagus properly before you cook it by snapping off the inedible woody bottom of the stalk.

Olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper. I love it grilled but roasted is fine. You can also sautee it in a pan on the stove top and it still rocks. (It's also nice for chilling leftovers and saving for salads.)

However I cook it, I always give it a little splash of fresh squeezed lemon juice after it's done. Not too much.

This is what I do, only difference is I put a sheet of foil down first for easy cleanup and I also spray the foil with some cooking spray.

Stem them , put on a cookie sheet, drizzle w EV olive oil , lightly salt and pepper, 9 min at 400. I assume you know how to stem?
Bend them until the stem breaks discard the short end. This works everytime perfect.

I like the taste of it roasted. Can that be done in the oven?


Yes. Roasted pretty much mean in the oven.

Put your thumb towards the bottom and snap them. That is a good way to find the point where they get tough. Discard the bottoms. Drizzle olive oil over them. Apply a generous amount of seasoning (I like Cavendar's for this.) Use your hands and mix it all up. Put in a 425 oven until they are starting to char and get crispy. About 20 minutes.

An alternative on these hot nights is to steam for 4-5 minutes then throw them in an ice bath. Then pick at them with a sauce of mayo/sour cream and dill with a little lemon.

Then enjoy the smell of your stinky pee-pee.

You cook them for 20 minutes at 425? And they aren't mush? You must get bigger asparagus.

Toss mine in olive oil, sea salt, and parmesan cheese. Roast in the oven on 350 for about 20 depending on how "done" you would like them.

I usually end up using a disposable pan so I can just toss it after I'm done.

Dry heat in an oven. They get crisp and lovely.

So bacon wrapped with cream cheese. No pickled jalapenos?
