Grilled Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus
Crispy, smoky, and packed with flavor, bacon-wrapped asparagus is the perfect appetizer for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 16 asparagus spears cleaned and trimmed
- 8 strips of bacon
Instructions
- Use one piece of bacon to wrap 2 asparagus spears together in the middle.
- Grill on an outdoor grill or grill pan for 5 minutes per side, or until the bacon is crispy.
Notes
- Using thin slices of bacon yields the best result. The thicker the bacon the longer it must cook, which can lead to overcooking the asparagus.
- If you choose to wrap each asparagus spear individually, cut the bacon strip in half lengthwise and use just one strip to wrap each spear.
