Photo: Smoked Turkey Wrapped Asparagus Recipe
Ingredients
- 12 asparagus spears
- 1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 thin slices smoked turkey (about 1/4 pound)
- 12 chives, optional
Directions
Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Break the woody end off each asparagus spear and peel the outermost layer off the lower 3/4 of the spear with a vegetable peeler. Place asparagus on a large plate, drizzle with the olive oil and toss gently so the oil is evenly distributed. Slice each slice of turkey lengthwise into three strips. Wrap one strip of turkey around each asparagus spear, leaving the tips of the asparagus unwrapped. If using, tie a blade of chive around each wrapped spear. Place the wrapped asparagus on baking tray and bake for12 minutes, turning once.

So simple, so delicious. The saltiness of the turkey is great with the asparagus. I was afraid at 12 minutes they'd be overcooked, but they were just perfect.

I made these for a dinner party appetizer and they were a huge hit. I only had one left and I think that was nobody wanted to take the last one.

I made this as an appetizer for a supper with friends. Delicious! The chives worked fine for holding the turkey. Mine were done in 12 minutes, so I did not turn them. I'm sure it depends on the thickness of the apsaragus. The roasted red pepper dip was also very good with this. I will definitely make this again. Good and also low fat!
