BACON ROASTED ASPARAGUS



Bacon Roasted Asparagus image

What's special about this asparagus recipe? I'm so glad you asked! Well (1) it's easy, (2) the oil is infused with garlic, (3) it has B-A-C-O-N!! Need I say more?

Provided by Natasha of NatashasKitchen.com

Categories     Easy

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 bunches of asparagus (~2 lbs)
3 Tbsp olive oil
6 medium garlic cloves (minced)
Salt & Pepper
6 slices of bacon (optional)

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.

  • To assemble: Plate the asparagus. Sprinkle with bacon and feta, and drizzle with Dijon dressing. Finish with flaky sea salt. Serve warm.

BALSAMIC ASPARAGUS SALAD



Balsamic Asparagus Salad image

ASPARAGUS WITH BACON, RED ONION, AND BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE



Asparagus With Bacon, Red Onion, and Balsamic Vinaigrette image

From America's Test Kitchen. This looks just wonderful. "To prepare the asparagus for this salad, we found that broiling concentrates the flavor of the asparagus and lightly caramelizes the peel. We prefer to use thin (under 5/8-inch) asparagus under the broiler-this lets us skip the peeling step and allows the spears to cook more evenly."

Provided by Queen Dragon Mom

Categories     Pork

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs thin asparagus, tough ends trimmed (2 bunches)
1 tablespoon olive oil
6 slices bacon, cut into 1/4-inch strips (about 6 ounces)
2 tablespoons minced red onions
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley leaves
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt & fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to about 4 inches from heating element and heat broiler.
  • Toss asparagus with oil and salt and pepper, then lay spears in single layer on heavy rimmed baking sheet. Broil, shaking pan halfway through to turn spears, until asparagus is tender and lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Cool asparagus 5 minutes and arrange on serving dish.
  • Fry bacon strips in medium skillet over medium heat until brown and crisp, about 6 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
  • Whisk onion, vinegar, parsley, and oil in small bowl; season to taste with salt and pepper. Drizzle over asparagus, sprinkle with bacon, and serve immediately.
