Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus

Ingredients:

  • 2 lb fresh asparagus, ends trimmed
  • 12 slice bacon, uncooked
  • 1/2 c light brown sugar
  • 1/2 c butter
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Divide asparagus spears into 12 bundles (3-4 pieces each). Wrap 1 piece of bacon around each bundle, starting 1/2″ from the bottom of the tips. Secure the bacon-wrapped asparagus with a toothpick. Arrange bundle in a shallow baking pan.

Combine brown sugar and remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan; heat mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Pour mixture over asparagus bundles.

Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until spears have begun to wilt and bacon looks fully cooked. Enjoy!
