Bacon Wrapped Asparagus

1 packages  Bacon (not turkey bacon)

1 lbs Asparagus 

1/2 stick butter

1/4cup light brown sugar

2 tablespoons of soy sauce

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

Wash them and cut the  bottom of the stems.

Wrap 2 -3 asparagus stems with one bacon Strip.

Place them on a foil covered cookie sheet.

On a saucepan heat  soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic and butter stirring frequently to prevent  burning. Continue until the sugar is all dissolved. The end product should be a thick brown sauce.

Using a  pastry brush, baste the bacon Asparagus.  Turn the asparagus and baste the bottom side  as well. 

Place  in the oven for 12-15 minutes  or until the bacon is slightly crispy on the outside.

 I like to serve them with  parmesan Mashed potatoes or Mushroom Risotto.
