Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus

Ingredients:
12 asparagus spears (I prefer thinner asparagus, but they were out of season and the only ones at the store are thick)
6 slices of prosciutto
1 tablespoon butter














Instructions:
Wash asparagus and cut off 2-3 cm of the ends
Cut each slice of prosciutto in half (lengthways, should have 12 strips)
Wrap each asparagus spear in a prosciutto strip (I found it most effective to wrap at a 45 degree angle so the prosciutto stays on while frying)
Heat butter in a frying pan until sizzling hot
Place wrapped asparagus spears in pan (be careful...if the butter spatters it is really hot!)
Cook for 2 minutes on each side

Makes 12 asparagus spears...Enjoy!
