Parmesan Pastry Asparagus

Simple. Filling. Delicious. i won’t waste your time with any other thoughts!

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 Pack of Asparagus

  • 1 Tbsp. Olive Oil

  • 1 Pack of Pillsbury Croissant Dough

  • 2-3 Tbsp. JamDinners Steak Spice

  • 1 Egg for Egg Wash

  • 1/2 Cup Parmesan Cheese, grated

Directions

  • Pre-heat oven to 400F. Rinse the asparagus and chop off the light ends.

  • Drizzle with olive oil then season with the steak spice. Toss them around or mix with your hands to make sure they are evenly coated.

  • Unroll the croissant dough. Cut it into about ½ inch (1.5 cm) strips wide. The length will depend on the length of the spears. Take a strip and wrap it around the asparagus spear, leaving some free space in between and ensuring you leave the tip free.

  • Place them on a baking sheet and repeat until you are done. Crack the egg into a bowl and beat it to make an egg wash. Brush each asparagus twist with the egg wash (the pastry parts) and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

  • Bake in a preheated oven at 400F for 10 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

  • You could also plus up this recipe really easily by adding a layer of prosciutto between the asparagus and the dough. Or do half the batch of asparagus this way and the other half with ONLY prosciutto … we’ve got a recipe for that!
