Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and line a broiler pan with foil.
- Cut the asparagus spears in half and put each half on a skewer.
- Add 3 TBSP (or so) of salt to a very large bowl and add hot water.
- Set the skewered asparagus into the hot salted water to soak while you prep the rest of the meal.
- In another large bowl, combine the meat, onion powder, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper, cilantro and Jalapeño, if desired.
- Remove asparagus from water and set onto paper towels to drain. Take a handful of meat and roll it into a “kabob” form:
- Press the asparagus into the meat and form the meat around the asparagus.
- Lay on the broiler pan and drizzle lightly with olive oil.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping half way through, and let cool for about 5 minutes before eating.
