Roasted Asparagus With Fresh Strawberries

• 4 slices bacon, chopped (applewood-smoked)
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon orange marmalade
• 2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
• 30 asparagus spears, tough ends removed
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 (16 ounce) container fresh strawberries, sliced 1/4 inch thick (about 2 1/2 cups)
• 6 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled (the type with peppercorns in it)
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, ground

1. In a medium skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon from skillet, and drain on paper towels. Drain bacon grease from skillet. (Do not wipe skillet out.).
2. Add 1/4 cup olive oil and marmalade to skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until marmalade is melted, loosening brown bits from bottom of skillet while stirring. Remove from heat, and stir in vinegar. Set aside.
3. Preheat oven to 425u0b0. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
4. Spread asparagus in a single layer on prepared baking sheet. Drizzle asparagus with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, tossing gently to coat. Sprinkle evenly with salt.
5. Bake until asparagus is barely tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Place asparagus on a large platter, or divide evenly among 6 salad plates.
6. Stir strawberries into marmalade mixture, tossing to coat. Spoon strawberry mixture evenly over asparagus.
7. Top evenly with bacon, feta cheese, and pepper. Serve immediately.
