Brie And Prosciutto Asparagus Bundles Recipes

BRIE AND PROSCIUTTO ASPARAGUS BUNDLES

Steps:

• Place asparagus spears in a resealable plastic bag.
• Whisk olive oil, vinegar, and mustard in a bowl. Pour over asparagus in the bag and distribute evenly. Marinate for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Divide asparagus into bundles of 3 stalks each. Cut prosciutto slices in half lengthwise and lay on a cutting board. Wrap a piece of prosciutto around each bundle to create 7 or 8 bundles. Place bundles in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until asparagus is tender, 14 to 16 minutes.
• Remove dish from oven and set oven to broil. Place 1 slice of Brie cheese on top of each bundle and sprinkle with crushed walnuts. Return to the oven and broil until cheese begins to melt, about 1 minute.

CHEESE, PROSCIUTTO AND ASPARAGUS CRUSTED BUNDLES

Steps:

• Asparagus -- Pre cook the asparagus just 1 1/2 minutes in the microwave just lay flat on a paper towel and cover with a damp paper towel. Just to get a head start.
• Rolls -- Spread out the crescent rolls and press the pre cut seems together to form one large sheet. Cut in half top to bottom and then cup each half in 3 strips. Spread with some of the boursin or herb cheese. (Thin layer, not heavy).
• Wrap -- 4-5 asparagus spears with prosciutto. I like to alternate the spears going in different directions to make sure they cook evenly. Then wrap in the strips of crescent rolls a spiral pattern around the asparagus and prosciutto. Make sure you leave the tips and the very ends open (a inch or more) but the rest should be wrapped with the crescent roll.
• Bake -- Place the wrapped asparagus bundles on a cookie sheet lined with foil or parchment paper. Melt the butter in the microwave and brush with butter. Sprinkle with parmesan and bake in a 400 degree oven for 14-16 minutes until golden brown.

ASPARAGUS PROSCIUTTO CREPES WITH WHITE WINE BRIE SAUCE FOR TWO

Steps:

• Cook the asparagus to your liking and set aside.
• Remove the rind from the brie and tear or cut into pieces; set aside.
• In a medium skillet, melt the 1/4 tablespoon butter; add the mushrooms; saute for about 4 minutes.
• Add the onion and continue to saute until the onion is translucent (about 3 more minutes). Set aside.
• In a medium sauce pan, melt the 3 tablespoons butter; add the flour, stirring until smooth. I cooked this mixture on medium-medium high for about two minutes trying to get it to brown, but no luck.
• Slowly add the chicken stock, one 1/2 cup at a time, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
• Once the stock is incorporated, slowly stir in the white wine as you stir to avoid lumps.
• Add the garlic powder and ground black pepper.
• Turn heat up to medium high and stir so the mixture is very hot, but not boiling.
• Add the sour cream and stir briskly. The lumps will dissipate as you continue to cook the sauce.
• Stir in the brie pieces; turn heat down to medium low.
• Add in the parsley and sauteed mushrooms and onions.
• Continue to heat the sauce, stirring occasionally until all lumps are removed.
• At this point, you can either create your crepes or use your prepared crepes. I made my crepes while my sauce softly simmered.
• Place one slice of prosciutto on the crepe.
• Place four spears of asparagus on the crepe. Roll up the crepe.
• Top with the sauce.
• Serve and enjoy!

ASPARAGUS AND PROSCIUTTO BUNDLES

Steps:

• Cut stalks from asparagus, leaving 2-inch-long tips. (Reserve asparagus stalks for another use; see note in recipe introduction.) Cook asparagus tips in large pot of boiling salted water until just crisp-tender, about 1 minute. Drain. Transfer asparagus to paper towels and drain well.
• Mix goat cheese, basil, pine nuts, water and orange peel in small bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Spread scant 1 teaspoon filling over each prosciutto strip. Arrange 2 asparagus tips atop filling at 1 short end of prosciutto. Roll up prosciutto, enclosing base of asparagus. Press to seal. Place on platter. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)

ASPARAGUS AND BRIE OPEN PASTRY

Steps:

• First preheat your oven to 400°F.
• Take out your large cutting board and dust with flour lightly.
• Gently roll the sheet of puff pastry into a rectangle 16x10 inches.
• Trim the edges if they are crooked.
• With a knife, score (gently) 1 inch in from the edges to mark a rectangle.
• Use a fork and pierce the dough inside the markings at 1/2-inch intervals.
• Randomly scatter some baking beans so the dough doesn't poof up badly (you know, the kind you use when blind baking pie dough!).
• Bake 12 minutes.
• Leave your oven on, but remove pastry from the oven.
• Layer the slices of brie over the top (leave a small edge).
• Cut your asparagus to the width of the pastry and arrange in a single layer over your brie slices (you could make it pretty or whatever by putting top to bottom top to bottom alternating ends that are on each side).
• Brush top with the seasoned olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and bake 25 minutes.
• Serve!
