Serving Size:

Ingredients

12 slices of bacon

1.5 Tbsp olive oil

1.5 Tbsp toasted sesame oil

1 Tbsp Dale’s Seasoning, Original

1.5 Tbsp brown sugar

1 garlic clove, minced or pressed

1 lb bunch of asparagus, about 20-25 spears, trimmed

1/2 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until just beginning to brown but is still pliable, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain bacon slices on a paper towel lined plate, then cut in half crosswise. 
  3. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack with nonstick spray. 
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together Dale’s Seasoning, brown sugar and garlic, then set aside. 
  5. Wrap half a piece of bacon around center of each asparagus spear tightly; secure both ends of bacon with toothpicks. Place on prepared rack, then brush spears thoroughly with the prepared marinade. 
  6. Bake until asparagus is very tender and bacon is crisp, about 20 minutes.
  7. Remove toothpicks and place on a serving platter, then top with sesame seeds. Serve warm.
