For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the lemon aioli. If you don't have an outdoor grill, these asparagus bundles can also be cooked in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy. Ensure that the bacon is cooked to a safe internal temperature. For a vegetarian option, skip the bacon and toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice before grilling.
