Grilled Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus

What delicious-looking asparagus. I love the crispy, grilled prosciutto!

Ingredients:

•     24 medium asparagus spears, snapped
•     8 sheet very thinly sliced prosciutto, cut in thirds lengthwise
•     1 large garlic clove
•     1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
•     2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
•     1/4 teaspoon each Kosher salt and black pepper
•     1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling

Instructions:

1. Make vinaigrette by whisking garlic, vinegar, mustard, and salt and pepper in a 2-cup Pyrex measuring cup.
2. Slowly whisk in oil until you reach the 1-cup mark.
3. Drizzle asparagus with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
4. Working one spear at a time, roll each one in a piece of prosciutto.
5. Grill over direct heat on a charcoal or gas grill turning them only once until prosciutto is crisp and the asparagus are crisp-tender, 5 to 6 minutes.
6. Arrange spears on each plate and drizzle with balsamic vinegar or vinaigrette.
7. Serve immediately.
