Ingredients
For The Asparagus:
- 1 pound asparagus
- 1 3 oz. package prosciutto
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- ¼ tsp. kosher salt
- ¼ tsp. pepper
For The Dipping Sauce:
- ½ cup sour cream
- 3 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 ½ tablespoon lemon juice
- ¼ tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. sugar
- 3 tsp. dried tarragon
Instructions
For The Asparagus:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Wash the asparagus spears and pat dry. Trim the woody ends off the bottom of the spears.
- Cut each piece of prosciutto into quarters. Wrap a strip around each individual asparagus spear. Repeat with remaining asparagus and prosciutto.
- Place the asparagus with prosciutto on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 Tbsp. of olive oil. Add ¼ tsp. each of kosher salt and pepper.
- Place pan in oven and bake for 15-16 minutes. The asparagus should soften and the prosciutto will caramelize slightly. Remove pan when finished and allow to cool slightly.
For The Dipping Sauce:
- Add ½ cup sour cream, 3 Tbsp. Dijon mustard, 2 ½ Tbsp. lemon juice, 1 tsp. sugar, ¼ tsp. garlic powder, and 3 tsp. dried tarragon to a small bowl. Stir until completely combined.
- Arrange asparagus with prosciutto on a serving platter and drizzle with the sauce. Alternatively, pour the sauce in a small serving bowl and use as a dipping sauce.
Notes
Asparagus can be topped with fresh tarragon or lemon zest for extra flavor.
Feel free to substitute any herb you like in place of tarragon.
