Ingredients
  • 12 slices of Prosciutto( 6 could be used to reduce sodium content.)
  • 36 thin, gourmet, asparagus spears, trimmed
  • Asparagus Marinade
  • 1 T. extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 T. fresh lemon juice
  • Herbed Goat Cheese
  • 6 oz. goat cheese, softened
  • 1½ t. fresh thyme
  • 1 clove garlic, pressed
  • 1 T. fresh lemon juice
  • Lemon zest from one lemon
  • ½ t. black pepper
  • ¼ t. kosher salt
Instructions
  1. Trim asparagus spears.
  2. Mix the asparagus marinade.
  3. Toss spears in marinade to coat. Allow them to marinate until ready to use.
  4. Place goat cheese log in glass dish and evenly distribute ingredients on top.
  5. Blend herbed cheese ingredients together.
  6. Place a prosciutto slice on cutting board.( I keep the plastic divider on bottom to help keep meat from coming apart while working with it.)
  7. Place a rounded teaspoon of the herbed goat cheese on one end of the prosciutto.
  8. Press the 3 asparagus spears into the mound of herbed cheese.
  9. Gently peel prosciutto end away from plastic divider.
  10. Wrap the prosciutto around the asparagus and roll, either halfway and trim, or use the whole slice. (Your tolerance for saltiness will determine this option.)
  11. Place on grill for about 4-5 minutes, rotating every minute.
