Roasted Asparagus Spears with Prosciutto
and Herbed Cheese
This dish makes a great appetizer or side. Crispy prosciutto wraps tender
asparagus with a cheesy surprise inside.
Serves 2
3 tablespoons Boursin garlic herb
cheese
Finely-grated lemon zest from 1/2
lemon
12 spears fresh asparagus, bases cut
off
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
4 slices prosciutto
You will also need a cast iron fajita
pan or skillet.
Directions
Preheat the pizza oven for cooking with the upper burner control on
HIGH and the lower burner control on LOW. Preheat a cast iron fajita
pan in the oven.
Combine the Boursin and the lemon zest.
Toss the asparagus in a bowl with the olive oil and lemon juice.
Lay out a slice of prosciutto on a clean work surface. Lay 2 asparagus
spears across one end of the prosciutto. Place a dollop of the Boursin
mixture on the center of the spears. Press a third spear into the top
of that. Roll tightly into the prosciutto slice to make the first bundle.
Repeat 3 more times.
Place the bundles in the preheated pan and put the pan into the oven.
Roast the bundles for about 4 minutes, turning once or twice with
tongs until the prosciutto is crisp. Use caution to avoid overcooking
the asparagus.
