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!
