Sautéed Garlic Asparagus With Bacon Recipes

SAUTEED ASPARAGUS WITH GARLIC AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over high heat. Once it's hot, add the oil and asparagus. Using tongs, toss the asparagus so that it cooks evenly. (Make sure the asparagus is completely dry before adding it to the pan to avoid any oil splatters)
• After 3 minutes, add the garlic to the pan. Cook for 2 minutes more then remove the pan from the heat.
• Add the parmesan to the pan and toss the asparagus so it's coated in the cheese. Serve right away.

BACON ROASTED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Combine minced garlic in a small bowl with 3 Tbsp olive oil and set aside while preparing your asparagus and gathering the rest of your ingredients.
• Break off the fibrous ends of your asparagus by holding the base end and snapping it wherever it snaps. Discard the ends. I like this method most because it ensures that you won't have any fibrous ends. You can also use a knife to cut the ends off about 1" up from the base.
• Transfer asparagus to a rimmed baking sheet then drizzle and toss it with the garlic oil. Sprinkle lightly with salt & pepper and bake at 400°F for 13-18 mins (depending on the thickness of asparagus) or until lightly browned and easily pierced with a fork.
• While baking, saute 6 strips of bacon, drain on paper towels then coarsely chop. Serve asparagus warm and sprinkle the top with bacon.

SAUTEED ASPARAGUS W/ BACON

Steps:

• Cut tough ends off asparagus.
• Bundle together 3-4 asparagus stalks & wrap, bottom to top, with a slice or two of bacon.
• Tuck loose bacon end between asparagus stalks to secure.
• Repeat with the rest of the asparagus.
• Heat Olive Oil in skillet over medium heat.
• Add chopped garlic & asparagus bundles to skillet.
• Saute 5-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until asparagus is tender & bacon is cooked.

SAUTEED GARLIC ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Melt the butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and asparagus spears; cover and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until asparagus is tender. If you like your asparagus well done, reduce heat and cook an additional 10 minutes.

BACON WRAPPED GARLIC PARMESAN ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• On a baking sheet covered in foil, put 6 slices of bacon. Put sheet in cold oven, then turn on preheat to 400. Allow bacon to slowly cook for about 10-12 minutes. It should still be rather rare but partially cooked. Take it out and put it aside. Important: KEEP THE FOIL, do not throw it away - see below.
• Meanwhile, put the other ingredients including asparagus into a gallon size ziplock bag and shake to coat thoroughly.
• Wrap 4-5 stalks of asparagus about halfway down with the bacon. Place seamside down on the same foil and sheet you cooked the bacon on (right on the bacon grease spots). Cook for 10-20 minutes at 400 degrees, depending on how tender you want your asparagus (I like super tender at 20 minutes).
