My aunt brought these to every basketball watch party. Just 2 ingredients for a savory, crispy appetizer that disappears instantly.

Instructions

1. Preheat and prep

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. For extra-crispy bacon, place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet.

2. Prepare the asparagus

Rinse the asparagus and pat dry thoroughly. Trim off the woody ends by snapping or cutting about 1–2 inches from the bottom of each spear.

3. Wrap with bacon

Take one slice of bacon and starting at the thicker end of an asparagus spear, wrap it tightly in a spiral, overlapping slightly as you go. Secure the end underneath the wrap. Repeat with remaining asparagus and bacon.
