How to Make Baked Asparagus Wrapped In Prosciutto
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Grease a baking dish (approximately 9x13 inches) with 1 tablespoon of butter.
- Bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan. Add 1 teaspoon of salt.
- Add 1 pound of asparagus to the boiling water. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until spears are tender-crisp but still bright green.

- Dot with 1 tablespoon of butter and sprinkle evenly with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
