Thinly sliced pancetta goes a little crisp, its salty porkiness complementing the asparagus. Though the spears are wrapped, they cook through perfectly and even pick up some grill flavor.

Cooks' notes:

·If you aren't able to grill outdoors, asparagus can be broiled about 3 inches from heat, turning, about 5 minutes.
·Asparagus can be wrapped in pancetta 1 day ahead and chilled.
