Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 pound thin asparagus spears, trimmed
• 6 ounces sliced prosciutto
• 4 ounces Brie cheese, cut into 1/4-inch slices
• 3 tablespoons crushed walnuts

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Place asparagus spears in a resealable plastic bag.

Step 3

Whisk olive oil, vinegar, and Dijon mustard together in a small bowl until well combined; add to the bag with asparagus and distribute evenly. Marinate at room temperature for 1 hour.

Step 4

Divide asparagus into 3-stalk bundles. Cut prosciutto slices in half lengthwise; lay on a cutting board. Wrap 1 piece prosciutto around each asparagus bundle to create 7 or 8 bundles; place bundles in a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until asparagus is tender, 14 to 16 minutes. Transfer baking dish to a wire rack; turn on the broiler. Place 1 Brie slice on top each bundle; sprinkle with crushed walnuts.

Step 6

Broil until cheese begins to melt, about 1 minute.
