Asparagus On The Grill Recipes

GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Set up grill for direct cooking over medium heat and oil the grates.
• Place the trimmed asparagus on a baking sheet. Add the chopped garlic and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and toss to coat.
• Place on the grill directly or in a grill basket. Grill until just tender and lightly charred, about 5 minutes.

THE BEST GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat. Chop the tough, woody ends off the asparagus (about 1 inch) and peel another inch of the stalks.
• Whisk the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Add the asparagus and toss until well coated.
• Put the asparagus on the grill at an angle so the stalks don't fall through the grates. Grill, flipping halfway through cooking, until the asparagus begin to char, the pointy ends start to crisp and the stalks are just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a platter and sprinkle with the feta and mint.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Cut off tough ends of asparagus.
• Combine all ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag.
• Seal and marinate for 30 minutes.
• Remove asparagus from bag, and discard marinade.
• Place asparagus on grill rack or grill pan coated with cooking spray.
• Grill at medium to medium-high temperature for 5 minutes on each side or until asparagus is done.

GRILLED PARMESAN GARLIC ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Prepare asparagus and trim the bottoms.
• Lay the asparagus in the pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss in the olive oil.
• Lay the asparagus on the grill or grill plate in a row. Grill for 5-10 minutes over medium high heat until they have char marks and are fork tender. Remove asparagus and place back in the pan. Toss with garlic and parmesan cheese. Serve.
• *You can also grill the asparagus in foil if desired.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Trim off the tough bottom of the spear by grasping each end and bending it gently until it snaps at its natural point of tenderness-usually two-thirds of the way down the spear. If the spear is less than 6 inches long, chances are it has already been trimmed for you. Alternatively, you can cut the ends off with a knife.
• Coat each spear with olive oil by placing clean, dry spears in a resealable plastic bag, pour in the oil, and massage spears to coat each one. Sprinkle with salt and massage again. Leave the asparagus in the bag until ready to cook.
• Place on the cooking grate crosswise so it won't fall through. Grill for 10 to 15 minutes (depending on the size and thickness of the stalks), turning occasionally to expose all sides to the heat. Asparagus should begin to brown in spots (indicating that its natural sugars are caramelizing) but should not be allowed to char.
• Remove from grill and serve immediately-eating spears with your fingers enhances the experience.

PERFECT GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat your grill to 375-400°.
• Fold up a little foil tray with raised sides. You can also use a small baking pan for this, just make sure it has sides and is secure.
• Cut off the tough ends of the asparagus, and wash well. Let dry, and then toss with olive oil.
• Season evenly with seasonings, and lay in a single layer on a baking tray.
• Top with pats of butter, and grill over medium heat until the asparagus is tender-crisp, about 6-8 minutes.
• Toss lightly in the butter that has melted at the bottom of the tray, and serve immediately.

HOW TO MAKE THE BEST GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium heat, about 350° to 400°F, and brush the grill grates clean.
• Remove the woody ends of the asparagus by snapping the ends off. Bend each stalk gently about 2/3 of the way down the stalk until it naturally breaks where the woody part begins. If desired, use a knife to trim the ends of the stalks to tidy up the cuts. Discard the ends.
• Place the asparagus spears in a shallow bowl or on a platter or baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and toss the spears with your hands to coat. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper and toss again.
• Place the asparagus across the grill grates perpendicular to the bars. Grill with the lid closed for 6 to 10 minutes or until the spears are tender and crisp. Use tongs to roll the spears for even grill marks.
• Transfer to a platter and if desired, drizzle with more olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. Can be served warm or at room temperature.
