Make simple, low-carb bacon wrapped asparagus bundles. This recipe is perfect for a keto side dish or appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh asparagus, tough ends trimmed
  • 12 thin slices bacon
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Toss the trimmed asparagus spears with olive oil, garlic powder, and black pepper.
  3. Group the asparagus into 4 bundles, with about 5-7 spears per bundle.
  4. Wrap each bundle tightly with 3 slices of bacon, securing the ends.
  5. Place the bundles on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes.
  7. If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the bundles now.
  8. Continue baking for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and the asparagus is tender.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • For crispier bacon, you can start the bundles on a wire rack placed over the baking sheet.
  • If you prefer grilling, cook over medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes, turning often until the bacon is done.
  • For an air fryer, cook at 375°F (190°C) for 10 to 12 minutes.
