Wash and trim the asparagus, selecting thin spears.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Prepare a cookie sheet with foil and grease it with olive oil spray.

Gather 4 to 5 asparagus spears and wrap them with prosciutto, starting near the bud end and wrapping down to the bottom.

Place the wrapped asparagus bundles on the prepared cookie sheet.

Microplane a clove of garlic over the bundles for flavor.

Sprinkle fresh ground black pepper over the bundles.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until the prosciutto begins to crisp up and the asparagus is tender.

Remove from the oven and top each bundle with a slice of Parmesan cheese using a vegetable peeler.
