Asparagus is a star of the season, as a side dish to any main course chicken, fish, pork, beef, or lamb or as a salad topped with a squeeze of lemon juice. Active time: 15 min Start to finish: 30 min Ingredients:
1 1/2 lb medium asparagus (24), trimmed |
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil |
kosher salt |
Directions:
1. Prepare grill.
2. Divide asparagus into 4 bunches. Align each bunch in a flat row and thread 2 skewers crosswise through each bunch (see photo, above). Brush asparagus with oil and season with kosher salt.
3. Grill asparagus on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until tender, 3 to 5 minutes on each side.
4. Cooks' notes: The parallel skewers make it easier to turn the asparagus. If outdoor grilling isn't an option, asparagus may also be grilled in a well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.
