GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH LEMON AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium.
• In a shallow baking dish, toss the asparagus with the oil to coat well. Add the salt, and pepper and toss.
• Place the asparagus on the grill in a single layer, and cook, turning, until marked and tender, about 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a platter, sprinkle with the lemon juice and drizzle with olive oil, to taste. Cover with aluminum foil and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

HOW TO GRILL ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Wash the asparagus and pat dry thoroughly. Using a sharp knife, cut about 1-inch from the base of the asparagus stalks and discard.
• Combine the trimmed asparagus, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl or on a rimmed sheet pan. Toss until the asparagus is well coated.
• Preheat the grill to medium high heat (400 to 450°). Add the asparagus to the grill, placing them crosswise on the grill grates so that they don't fall through. Grill, turning as needed, until grill marks form, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Transfer the asparagus to a serving platter; squeeze one lemon half over the asparagus. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes and more salt and pepper, if you like.

GRILLED BALSAMIC ASPARAGUS

• Preheat grill on high heat.
• Remove asparagus from bag (discard marinade) and place on preheated oiled grill rack.
• Grill 5 minutes on each side or until asparagus is done.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH OLIVE OIL, LEMON & PARMESAN

Steps:

• Heat a large griddle pan, remove the hard ends from the asparagus and dry griddle on both sides until nicely marked (about 5 minutes).
• As soon as they're ready, put them on the plates and dress with a good squeeze of lemon juice and about twice as much olive oil. (The quantities listed in the ingredients above are really rough as you just need to dress this dish to your own taste.).
• Season with salt & pepper to taste and then add freshly shaved or grated parmesan cheese.
