Everything's better wrapped in bacon!
Author:
Recipe type: Appetizer
Ingredients
  • 8 slices bacon
  • Flour, for rolling out dough
  • 1 sheet crescent dough
  • 1 small bunch (about ½ lb.) asparagus, woody ends removed
  • 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Egg wash
  • ½ c. freshly grated Parmesan
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400º. On a large baking sheet with a wire rack placed on top, lay bacon. Bake until bacon is cooked but still pliable, about 20 minutes.
  2. Increase oven heat to 425°. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry out to a large rectangle. Square off edges and cut the rectangle into 8 even squares.
  4. Toss asparagus in olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  5. Brush each square of puff pastry with egg wash. Place a slice of cooked bacon on top, followed by 3 to 4 stalks of asparagus and a sprinkle of Parmesan. Wrap bacon around asparagus and cheese, then wrap puff pastry around the bacon-asparagus bundle, overlapping the puff pastry ends to seal.
  6. Brush each puff pastry with more egg wash. Bake until puff pastry is golden and puffed, about 12 minutes.
