Ingredients
  

  • 1 16 oz package of bacon thawed, sliced in half length wise
  • 1 standard size bunch of asparagus, with trimmed ends
  • olive oil
  • Seasonings: garlic salt, pepper

Instructions
 

  • Lightly drizzle asparagus with olive oil. Season with garlic salt and pepper. Using your hands, rub asparagus to ensure it is evenly coated with olive oil and seasonings.
  • Wrap an asparagus stick with bacon. Place in air fryer. Repeat with remaining asparagus and bacon until gone. It is okay if they overlap in the air fryer, a little bit. Do not fill too full in the air fryer though or it could alternate cook time. You might have to air fry it in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
  • Air fry at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes, checking periodically to see if they are evenly cooking. They will be done when the bacon is crispy. I found that my bacon on the very top of the air fryer was getting done, and the lower level of bacon was not; so I removed the top asparagus so the bottom ones had a chance to cook better. I also stirred them around some. Serve your Bacon Wrapped Asparagus with a meat dish!
