2 tablespoons minced shallots |
2 pounds asparagus, trimmed |
salt and freshly ground black pepper |
parmesan shavings |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
2. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the tasso and cook, stirring constantly, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the shallots and cook until just softened, about 1 minute. Add the asparagus and toss to coat. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a roasting pan or baking dish.
