An easy spring side dish that doesn't mask the asparagus's unique flavor, and is done in just 3 easy steps. Top with feta cheese for extra tang, or use slivered almonds for a milder flavor and a little crunch. Serve hot or cold. Ingredients:
2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 teaspoon dried mint |
1 pound fresh asparagus spears, trimmed |
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, mix together the lemon juice and mint. Set aside.
2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place the asparagus into the boiling water for about 45 seconds, then remove to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain the asparagus, and place on a serving plate. Drizzle with the lemon mixture, and sprinkle cheese over the top.
