Roasted Asparagus With Gorgonzola Dolce, Prosciutto Bits And Aged Balsamic Vinegar

1. 1

   Heat oven to 475 degrees. Put asparagus in a shallow roasting pan, brush all over with 1 TB. oil and season with some grinds of pepper. While oven is preheating, put the diced prosciutto and 1 tsp. oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Brown the bits slowly, stopping before they are completely crispy. Reserve.

2. 2

   Roast the asparagus just until crisp tender, about 5 minutes. Turn the spears over so the bottom side is now on top. Turn off the oven, leave the pan inside for another 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Take out the pan and arrange four spears in a close fan shape, with the stem ends together at the bottom of the plate (or use a single platter.) With your fingers, break apart the cheese portions and sprinkle the dabs over the middle part of the spears. Evenly divide the prosciutto bits over the cheese. Place the plates in the warm oven to melt the cheese.

4. 4

   Remove the plates or platter and drizzle with the aged vinegar.
