Asparagus With Proscuitto Chips

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. 2

   Place proscuitto, in a single layer, on baking sheet and roast until crisp, about 8-10 minutes; transfer to a plate to cool.

3. 3

   Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil; add asparagus and cook until tender, 3-5 minutes (depending on thickness).

4. 4

   Drain asparagus and plunge into an ice water bath; drain again and pat dry with paper towels.

5. 5

   Cut asparagus into 2-inch pieces; place in a serving bowl and toss with oil, salt and pepper.

6. 6

   Break proscuitto into pieces and sprinkle over asparagus.

7. 7

   NOTE: You can also just break the proscuitto into pieces and pan fry a few minutes.

8. 8

   Remove when they start to crisp, then saute asparagus, with oil, in the pan.

9. 9

   Seems easier this way if you want to make less than the full recipe.

    However, I recommend making the whole recipe because it is so good.
