Shaved Asparagus And Prosciutto Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the asparagus, prosciutto, Parmesan and pine nuts in a large baking dish or on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper (light on the salt, as prosciutto and Parm are salty). Toss together all the ingredients to evenly incorporate.
• Bake until the prosciutto and cheese are crisp, about 12 minutes.

Steps:

• 1 Cut away about 2 inches of the base of each asparagus spear. With a vegetable peeler, shave the entire asparagus from bottom to top, reversing your grip and rotating as necessary to shave as much as possible. Don't rush it; be deliberate for the greatest precision.
• 2 Divide the asparagus strips among 4 salad plates. Cut each avocado half into 4 sections and place 2 wedges on each salad. Sprinkle with the mint leaves. Squeeze lime juice over the salads, drizzle evenly with the oil, and sprinkle with salt.

Steps:

• Cut the tips away from the asparagus stalks, then cook the tips in boiling water for 2 mins before plunging into iced water. Cook the stalks for 30 secs, then plunge into iced water, too. Mix the olive oil, lemon juice and lemon thyme together in a bowl and season with pepper. Using a swivel-blade vegetable peeler, strip ribbons off the stalks, dropping them into the bowl of dressing as you go.
• To serve, place a pile of asparagus ribbons in the centre of each plate. Drape the prosciutto around the side, scatter over the asparagus tips and Parmesan, then drizzle with some dressing from the bowl.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Place prosciutto slices in single layer on parchment. Bake until crisp, about 18 minutes. Cool. Break prosciutto into bite-size pieces.
• Meanwhile, cook asparagus in heavy large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.
• Drain. Transfer asparagus to bowl filled with ice water to cool. Drain thoroughly.
• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add chopped anchovies and garlic and sauté until garlic is golden, about 1 minute. Add asparagus and prosciutto and sauté until heated through, about 3 minutes. Add fresh lemon juice and remaining 1/2 cup olive oil and simmer 1 minute. Remove from heat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide greens among 6 plates. Top with asparagus mixture, dividing equally. Pour dressing from skillet over each serving. Serve warm with Farinata Wedges.

Steps:

• Snap off and discard the tough ends of the asparagus. Using a mandolin, sharp vegetable peeler or thin-bladed knife, slice the asparagus lengthwise into paper-thin ribbons.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and olive oil to make a dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper
• Place the asparagus ribbons in a shallow salad bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper and coat with half the dressing. Add the arugula, tossing gently to distribute the asparagus. Drizzle with the remaining dressing.
• With a vegetable peeler, shave thin curls of Parmesan over the salad. Accompany with a platter of sliced prosciutto, if desired.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice and anchovy. Season the dressing with salt and pepper.
• Snap off and discard the tough end of each asparagus spear. Using a sharp knife, slice asparagus lengthwise into ribbons. For skinny asparagus, just halve lengthwise.
• Place sliced asparagus in a large salad bowl. Toss with salt and pepper, then add the dressing and toss to coat.
• For each serving, place a handful of dressed asparagus on a plate. Surround with slices of colorful radish, and tuck a few more slices among the asparagus ribbons. Sprinkle radishes lightly with salt.
