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.

• Drizzle with the optional reduced or aged balsamic vinegar for a super tasty variation.

• 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.

Place one seasoned asparagus spear across the middle of the prosciutto at the bottom end and roll up the asparagus tightly in the prosciutto. Repeat with remaining asparagus.
