Great recipe to have the spring asparagus. Full of flavor and still well balanced. Fairly hearty, but still a lighter dish. I like the spice in it. I doubled the red flakes, but can triple the amount next time. Bacon was not overpowering, but I did drain the bacon fat as recipe says, to reduce it’s flavor.

Besides the asparagus, the remaining ingredients are normally in my pantry, so an easy weeknight dish. I used a wide grader to slice the asparagus. The dish had plenty of it’s flavor due the whole pound of asparagus used in the recipe.

Will I make it again? - yes. I should make it every year for the asparagus season. It is different from the prosciutto dish, but I also like the heartiness that the bacon and yolk bring to this dish.
