Prosciutto Wrapped Grilled Asparagus


If you ask my son what his least favorite food is, he would say “asparagus”, without a doubt, no hesitation. However, I love it and he also needs to at least try it a few times before he can legitimately hate it. So – we are trying new ways to eat it. Here’s one of the ways we’ve found that he will at least eat all of it, even if it’s not willingly.

1 lb. of asparagus spears, trimmed, cut into about 5 inch long spears
4 thin slices of prosciutto cut in half length-wise
1 Tbsp. lemon pepper seasoning
1 Tbsp. olive oil

  • Make a foil pan to hold your asparagus on the grill. I typically just take a sheet and fold the edges around to make a small “pan” with sides.
  • Place asparagus spears onto the foil pan and drizzle with the olive oil.
  • Roll around spears to make sure they are coated in the oil. Sprinkle spears with lemon pepper seasoning.
  • Gather the asparagus into 8 small bundles and wrap with a slice of the prosciutto.
  • Grill on the top rack at 350°F for about 15 minutes or until prosciutto and asparagus are cooked.
