Mmm... easy & pretty, who doesn't love a savory bundle of asparagus, boursin & prosciutto? Feels healthy! Tastes like bacon :) Make ahead for a cocktail party or serve with brunch.
Ingredients:
- 3 bundles of fresh asparagus for ~15 bundles, can scale to your liking
- 1 package of yummy creamy boursin cheese
- ~15 slices of prosciutto
- olive oil, splash of chicken stock, salt & pepper to taste
Preparation:
Rinse and trim your asparagus. I'm in agreement with these guys that the snap trick doesn't always work, and you may end up wasting too much of the good green stalk. Just use your judgment. It's not rocket science.
Saute the asparagus in a little olive oil & a nice splash of chicken stock (or however you prefer to prepare it to a crisp bright green). *This only takes a couple of seconds! Feel free to shock in an ice water bath to stop the cooking if you're afraid you'll overcook, otherwise I simply toss them in the pan til bright green (seriously, it happens fast) and then I lay them on a sheet pan to cool. Season with kosher salt & pepper.
Take ~5 stalks and smear a nice teaspoon's worth of boursin in the middle of the bundle and wrap in a slice of prosciutto. Stack the bundles on a serving dish and serve warm or room temp even. Hope you enjoy!
