Equipment

  • Large skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 slice of bacon
  • 12-15 asparagus spears, woody ends removed, cut into thirds
  • ½ tsp Dijon mustard
  • Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  • Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, flipping it halfway through cooking, until crisp and golden brown.  
  • Place the bacon onto paper towels to drain.  Crumble the bacon into large bits.
  • Add the chopped asparagus to the same large skillet with the bacon grease; cook, stirring often, for 4-5 minutes or until crisp-tender.

  • Toss in the bacon, then serve it immediately.  Enjoy.
