This recipe is too common and simple for most but it is my first time making it.
I would have to agree that these two ingredients are a match-made in heaven
after broiling them together with some olive oil and basic seasoning.
Fat asparagus
Streaky bacon
Olive oil
Black pepper
Your favorite chili sauce (optional)
A wedge of lemon juice
Wrap asparagus evenly with bacon from bottom to top. Brush bacon with chili sauce.
Grease a baking pan with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place asparagus evenly on pan and season with crushed black pepper.
Broil till bacon turns crispy.
Squeeze a wedge of lemon juice over it before serving with a glass of chardonnay.

while i’m not a fan of bacon, i can see how bacon lovers would love this! great photo too!
Thank you very much! It’s good to taste it once in a while. Happy you stopped by 🙂
Brilliant in its simplicity! Lovely picture.
Aw….Thank you very much for the nice compliment. I truly appreciate it. 🙂
Love this, Danny! I make something similar, however, next time I’ll try it with the addition of chili sauce…my husband will enjoy the addition of some heat to this. These types of simple ingredients really highlight the asparagus.
Thank you Allison, I am thinking besides chili sauce, paprika or tobasco might work too 🙂
Those are all great ideas!
This looks really delicious! I just bought a bunch of white asparagus for the first time. I usually use green. I was thinking they would be great with Sunday dinner tomorrow.
Thank you for your nice comment. White asparagus are gems. I am sure you had made them really good.
Dany, I love bacon and I love asparagus; never thought of this combination! 🙂 It looks delicious and this afternoon we bought two packs of bacon (they were on special) ! beautiful pictures as always Dany!
Thank you so much Ingrid. I am so happy you like it. I am gonna make it again for my mum. And it goes really well with a glass of white and perhaps some cheese 🙂
Looks yummy Danny! I’ve wrapped asparagus with prosciuttos before but never bacon. Love the idea of chili sauce. Well done! 🙂
Always love this dish 🙂
Thank you Jean. It really is a simple and good recipe. Glad you like it! 🙂
this looks great! so simple too a great way to get boys to eat their vegetables! they love bacon! haha x
Thank you very much! I love bacon too! If you try, do let me know how it worked for you….danny 🙂
Fantastic Danny!! Really looks wonderful.

Kenley!! 🙂 Thank you very much for your kind comment. I’m glad you like it !
This looks lovely. I’m not a big asparagus fan, but the bacon throws me over the edge. 🙂
Hi Pamela! I’m not a big asparagus fan too, but the flavor from the bacon kind of seeps in to the vegetable and made them really tasty. Thank you for stopping by. Looking forward to hear from you again 🙂 …danny
I am an asparagus fan. Will try this at home, with extra chili sauce. Thanks. 🙂
Thank you my friend. I am thinking tobasco may work well too! 🙂
yes, i love tabasco. 🙂
Lovely Danny!
Asparagus, bacon, a glass of white wine. These are a few of my favourite things.
(sing it like Julie Andrews!)
Thank you Lindy! Great to hear from you 🙂 These are my favorite too. And for some reason I like to enjoy it during mid-day…hmmm…
This is one of my favorite things to eat…but I’m afraid to make them too often! I probably can finish the whole batch and nothing left for the rest of the family! 😛 I’ve never tried one with chili sauce though. Guess I’ll have to make a batch soon!
same here..i just couldn’t stop eating 🙂 if you try, let me know how it goes 🙂
Beautiful photography Danny! I will pass on the bacon, but the asparagus looks AMAZING! I love asparagus….so delicious 🙂
Thank you very much Brandi. You can also broil the asparagus with olive oil, sliced garlic, coarse sea salt and black pepper. Always love hearing from you. 🙂
Someone in my family will definitely love this one. I bet it’s crunch and moist. Very yum. 🙂
Thank you very much! It is a simple and delicious recipe 🙂
Lovely appetizer. A little drizzle of thick balsamic might be nice with it!
That’s a great idea! Thank you for your nice comment and clever tip. 🙂
I love the special added chili sauce flavouring for the bacon here: great & tasty idea! I prefer the more delicate & thicker white asparagus because of their sweeter & more delicate flavour: that’s what Belgium is also famous for! Thanks! x
Aw…don’t tempt me with white asparagus! They are a gem! And I can never get them here. I’ve seen it in Switzerland but no chance to cook then. I’m so jealous of you 🙂
Don’t be! You have other culinary ingredients that we don’t have! 🙂 Have a great weekend!
Great combination 🙂
Thanks! 🙂
Aww…Thank you so much for the shout out on my asparagus post Kenley. I am truly honored 🙂
Danny
