Steps
Read instructions and get ready to cook
Preheat Oven or Grill
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) if baking, or preheat your grill to medium-high heat if grilling.
Prepare Asparagus
Wash the asparagus spears and trim off the tough ends. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Season Asparagus
Toss the asparagus spears in olive oil and season with black pepper (and salt if using). Ensure the spears are evenly coated.
Wrap with Bacon
Cut the bacon slices in half crosswise. Wrap each half slice of bacon tightly around an asparagus spear. If necessary, you can secure the bacon with a toothpick.
Cook
If baking, arrange the bacon-wrapped asparagus on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy. If grilling, place the bacon-wrapped asparagus directly on the grill, turning occasionally, for 10-15 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the asparagus is tender.
Serve
Remove the bacon-wrapped asparagus from the oven or grill and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this delicious and elegant dish as a side or appetizer.
