Bacon wrapped asparagus makes a delicious side dish. On the table in less than 30 minutes, this makes an easy and elegant asparagus recipe perfect for entertaining.


List of Ingredients




36 oz. asparagus stalks, (2.25 lb Costco bag)
20 slices thick cut bacon slices, (1 16 oz. pkg + 3 strips)
4 tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. fresh ground black pepper

Recipe



Preheat oven to 425º F.

Wrap 4-5 stalks asparagus (depending on thickness) with a piece of bacon.
Arrange on a rimmed baking sheet and repeat until all stalks have been wrapped with bacon pieces.

Whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
Pour over asparagus bundles and toss lightly to coat or brush on.
