Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Wash the asparagus and pat dry with a paper towel.
Cut 2 inches off the bottom of the asparagus. That's the fibrous part and it is quite difficult to eat. Discard.
Put 3 asparagus together and gently wrap them with the prosciutto.

Repeat the process with all.
Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil.
