Ingredients

  • Topping
  • 1/4  cup Progresso® Italian style panko crispy bread crumbs
  • Pinch gray salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1  tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1  teaspoon freshly grated lemon peel
  • 1  tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • Asparagus
  • 1  teaspoon salt
  • 1  large bunch (about 1 lb) fresh asparagus, trimmed to even lengths
  • Unsalted butter for greasing baking dish
  • 2  tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Additional gray salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 8  thin slices prosciutto (4 oz)

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 400ºF. In small bowl, mix bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Add parsley, lemon peel and cheese; toss well.
  2. 2In 3-quart saucepan, heat 4 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt to boiling. Add asparagus. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer about 4 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain.
  3. 3Butter shallow baking dish. Toss cooled asparagus with 2 tablespoons olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Divide asparagus into 4 equal bundles. On work surface, arrange 2 slices of the prosciutto so they slightly overlap each other. Top with 1 asparagus bundle and roll up carefully in prosciutto. Place in baking dish.
