Bacon is so elegant!
ingredients
- 1 bunch of asparagus, about 20-25 spears, stems removed
- 4 slices thick-cut bacon
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 garlic clove, minced or pressed
- 1/2 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack with nonstick spray.
- In a small bowl, whisk together oils, brown sugar and garlic. Set aside.
- Bunch together 5-6 asparagus spears and tightly wrap a piece of bacon around the bundle.
- Place on the wire rack seam-side down and repeat.
- Using a pastry brush, a spoon or even your hands, brush the spears thoroughly with the oil/sugar mixture.
- Give each bundle a hefty sprinkle of sesame seeds. (optional)
- Roast for 35-40 minutes, or until bacon is crispy. Serve warm.
