This makes a large quantity. We served this as one of the appetizers at our wedding reception. Guest loved them.
Ingredients
- 100 asparagus spears (5 pounds), trimmed to 6-inch length shopping list
- 100 thin slices provolone cheese (4-1/2 pounds) shopping list
- 1-3/4 pounds thinly sliced prosciutto shopping list
- 2-1/2 cups olive oil shopping list
- 2-1/2 cups balsamic vinegar shopping list
- 2 tablespoons cracked black pepper shopping list
- Fresh chives shopping list
How to make it
- Place one-fourth of the asparagus spears in a steamer basket. Place in a large skillet with one inch boiling water. Cover and steam for 4 minutes. Remove asparagus from steamer basket. Repeat with remaining asparagus, steaming 1/4 at a time.
- Wrap one cheese slice and then a half slice of prosciutto around each asparagus spear. Arrange wrapped asparagus in two 3-quart rectangular baking dishes, layering as necessary. For dressing, in a screw-top jar combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and pepper; shake well to mix. Drizzle half of the dressing over each dish. Cover and chill up to 24 hours.
- To serve, arrange on a serving platter. If desired, wrap each roll with a chive and tie.
