Asparagus With Prosciutto Food

ASPARAGUS WRAPPED IN CRISP PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and coat with olive oil.
• Wrap one slice of prosciutto around each asparagus spear, starting at the bottom, and spiraling up to the tip. Place the wrapped spears on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake for 5 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove, and shake the pan back and forth to roll the spears over. Return to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until asparagus is tender, and prosciutto is crisp. Serve immediately.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• If the asparagus are thick, peel them halfway up the stalks. Cut off and discard the bottom third of the asparagus. Place the asparagus in a single layer on a sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 10 minutes, until the stalks are just tender. Meanwhile, place the prosciutto in a single layer on another sheet pan and roast in the same oven for 5 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a medium (10-inch) saute pan over medium heat and wait until the bubbles almost subside. Crack the eggs into the skillet, keeping them separate, if possible. Sprinkle the eggs generously with salt and pepper and cook over medium heat until the whites are cooked but the yolks are still runny. Don't turn them over!
• Arrange the asparagus on 3 plates. Place 2 slices of prosciutto on top of each pile, drizzle with hollandaise, and place a fried egg on top of the prosciutto. Serve hot.
• Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in the jar of a blender and process on low for 15 seconds. Melt the butter in a small saucepan until it is sizzling hot. Remove the small clear insert in the top of the blender. With the blender on low, slowly add the hot butter to the egg and lemon mixture and blend for 30 seconds, until the sauce is very thick. Use immediately.

WRAPPED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400F. Wrap 2 asparagus spears with a slice of prosciutto. Place spears on baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil on the tips and ends of the asparagus (avoiding the prosciutto). Roast for 8-10 minutes, until the asparagus is cooked through and the prosciutto becomes crispy.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the Philadelphia Cooking Cream with the water. Microwave on medium setting for 45 seconds. If you can't find the Philadelphia Cooking Creme, feel free to omit (the Crispy Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus is great as-is!) or substitute with 1/4 cup Philadelphia Cream Cheese mixed with 2 tablespoons mayonnaise + 2 tablespoons water and your favorite chopped fresh herbs.
• Plate the asparagus and drizzle the Philadelphia Cooking Cream over the asparagus. Serve immediately.

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Cut each prosciutto slice crosswise in half. Spread each piece with about 1 teaspoon cheese; wrap around an asparagus spear., Place on an oiled grill rack over medium heat, seam side down. Grill, covered, until prosciutto is lightly browned, 6-8 minutes, turning once.

ASPARAGUS WITH POACHED EGG AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
• Separately, heat the oil in a large sauté pan on medium heat. Add the minced garlic, lemon juice and zest and asparagus spears. Sauté and use tongs to move the asparagus around until they are cooked through, approximately 3-5 minutes.
• Once the pot of water has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low and ensure that no bubbles are breaking the surface. Add each egg to a ramekin, then gently add to the pot of water. Cook each egg for 3 minutes. Then remove the egg with a slotted spoon and dab and excess water on a paper towel.
• To assemble, add a few asparagus spears to a plate, top with a slice of prosciutto, add a poached egg, season with salt and pepper and garnish with freshly grated parmigiano reggiano.

BAKED ASPARAGUS WITH SHIITAKE, PROSCIUTTO AND COUSCOUS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (it should be twice as long as the pan). Lay asparagus in a pile in the center. Scatter mushrooms and prosciutto on top. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, the pepper and nutmeg. Toss vegetables to coat evenly. Lay tarragon over top.
• Fold parchment to completely enclose vegetables, and staple top and sides shut (or tie up with string). Transfer pan to oven and bake for 1 hour. Asparagus should be just cooked through. If too crisp, return to oven until done to taste.
• In a small pot over medium-high heat, bring 3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons water, 2 teaspoons olive oil and remaining salt to a simmer. Stir in couscous and remove pot from heat. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with fork.
• Spoon couscous onto serving plates and drizzle with oil. Divide prosciutto and vegetables, and their juices, among the plates and serve.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400°F: Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
• Prepare the asparagus: Rinse and pat dry the asparagus. Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus. Set asparagus spears aside. (Reserve the snapped ends for another meal, if you like.)
• Wrap the asparagus with prosciutto: Cut prosciutto slices in half down their length. Wrap each spear of asparagus with one strip of sliced prosciutto. Tug the prosciutto a little as you wrap it around the asparagus to give it tension. This helps to ensure that the prosciutto wraps around the asparagus tightly. Lay the wrapped asparagus spears on the lined sheet pan.
• Drizzle the asparagus with 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil: Sprinkle a pinch of black pepper on top.
• Bake the asparagus for 8 to 10 minutes: When done, the asparagus will be bright green and easily pierced with a fork, and the prosciutto will be crisped around the edges.

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill over medium until the temperature is a steady 300ºF - 350ºF. Or you can preheat the oven to 400ºF.
• While the grill preheats, snap the tough ends off the asparagus.
• Wrap the asparagus spears with the strips of prosciutto. If the asparagus is thin, around 1/4″, group together 3 at a time to wrap with 1 strip of prosciutto.
• Once you've wrapped all the asparagus with prosciutto strips, brush them with the olive oil.
• Then lay them crosswise to the grill slats, and lower the heat to medium low. It's important to keep the temperature between that 300ºF- 350ºF range so that you don't have any flare ups.
• Or you can place them on a parchment lined baking sheet and roast for 8-12 minutes or until just tender. The timing will depend on the thickness of the asparagus spears.
• If grilling, cook the asparagus for 6-8 minutes or until just tender. As the asparagus cooks turn it 2-3 times to grill all the sides.
• Serve immediately with your choice of main dish. This dish is also great at room temperature and can be packed for a picnic as well.
• Drizzle with the optional reduced or aged balsamic vinegar for a super tasty variation.

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED ASPARAGUS WITH GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• In a bowl, combing the goat cheese with the tarragon, lemon juice and black pepper. Set aside.
• place the asparagus to steam in a large pan for 2 to 3 minutes (see notes), until the asparagus is just tender.
• and rinse with cold water, to prevent it from cooking further. Keep the asparagus in strainer and as you prepare to put the appetizers together.
• Spread several slices of prosciutto on working surface. Drizzle with olive oil. Take small bit of goat cheese, about the size of a pea and rub it on the shaft of a piece of asparagus. Place the asparagus at the end of a piece of prosciutto, and roll so that the asparagus is wrapped with 2-3 layers of the meat. Use a very sharp knife to cut the wrap from the remaining prosciutto. Trim the excess prosciutto to that the asparagus tip shows. Save the prosciutto trimmings for another use.
• Place the completed prosciutto wrapped asparagus pieces on a plate to serve. If not serving right away, cover the plate with plastic wrap and refrigerate.

RISOTTO WITH ASPARAGUS AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Cut the asparagus into pieces two inches long, keeping the tips separate from the stalks. Bring the chicken stock to simmer and cook the stalks until tender. Remove with a slotted spoon. Add tips and repeat process.
• Heat the oil and two tablespoons butter in a skillet and gently soften the shallots with the prosciutto. Season with salt and pepper and add the rice. Stir with a wooden spoon to coat the grains. Let the rice cook three to four minutes, stirring so that it absorbs the butter and turns opaque.
• Add the wine, stir, and then add the saffron.
• Add the hot stock a ladle at a time, and cook the rice, stirring. Keep stirring and adding stock for about 20 minutes. The rice will absorb the liquid. Make sure the stock is being absorbed and that there is not much liquid on top. The bottom of the pan should be clean.
• Start testing the rice. It is done when it is al dente. You may not need to use all the stock or you may need to add a little hot water. Be careful not to overcook the rice.
• Just before the risotto is ready, stir in the asparagus to heat through. Stir in the remaining butter but do not return to the heat. Add the cheese, spoon the rice onto individual heated plates and sprinkle with extra cheese and ground pepper.

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED ASPARAGUS WITH GARLIC AND HERB CHEESE

Steps:

• Begin by cutting about 1/2″ off the bottom of the asparagus or any unsightly trunks. Blanch the asparagus by boiling it in a large skillet over high heat in enough water to cover it by 1″. Boil rapidly for 1 minute. Remove the asparagus and immediately plunge in ice water. Dry with paper towels.
• Spread a thin layer of softened (room temperature) cheese over the slices of prosciutto (this can get messy so start with a little and add as you go).
• Bundle 3 asparagus spears together and wrap with the prosciutto like a candy cane or on an angle twisting up as you go.
• Place them on a baking sheet with parchment paper sprayed with cooking spray.
• Using a brush (or fingers) moisten the exposed asparagus with a little olive oil. This will help prevent them from drying out while cooking.
• Bake for 15 minutes at 400 F on the middle rack. They are done when a fork just pierces thru the thickest part of the asparagus. Be careful not to overcook.
• Place on a platter and lightly drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired.
• These can be served, hot, room temperature or cold.
