Ingredients

• 12 asparagus spears
• 1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 12 turkey bacon
• 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.
• 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 for 12 minutes, turning once.
