GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH OLIVE OIL, LEMON & PARMESAN

Steps:

• Wash whichever kind of asparagus you're using, with their woody ends snipped off.
• Heat a large griddle pan and dry-griddle the asparagus spears on both sides until nicely marked. As soon as they're ready, put them on to four plates and dress with a good squeeze of lemon juice and three times as much olive oil.
• Season with sea salt and black pepper to taste, then take a block of Parmesan to the table and either grate or shave some over the asparagus with a speed peeler.

GRILLED LEMON ASPARAGUS WITH FETA

Steps:

• Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Make sure to wash and trim the asparagus before cooking.
• Place the asparagus and halved lemons on the grill. Cook the asparagus for about 3 minutes on each side. Cook the lemon cut side down for 5-6 minutes. You can also cook the asparagus in a 425-degree oven for 8-10 minutes.
• Top with feta cheese with lemon juice.

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:

• 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 ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Lightly spray asparagus with olive oil spray. Grill asparagus until tender and beginning to brown, turning frequently, about 5 minutes. Transfer to platter. Sprinkle with salt to taste. Serve warm or at room temperature.

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.

GRILLED PIZZA WITH RICOTTA, ASPARAGUS, AND SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add sausage and break up as it browns. Cook until browned, drain grease, return to pan and then add asparagus. Continue to saute for 2-3 minutes until asparagus is bright green and tender. Remove from heat.
• Stretch pizza dough to about 1/2 inch or thinner. This recipes makes 2 pizzas but can be halved if you want. Brush both sides of dough with olive oil.
• Carefully put dough on heated grill and cover. Cook for two minutes, and look at the underside (grill side) of dough. It should be golden brown and the top should be bubbling up. If not, continue to cook for one minute intervals, checking after each minute. Once golden brown, remove to a cookie sheet or a pizza peel (grilled side facing up) and add toppings to grilled side. Spread ricotta almost to edges and then top with asparagus and sausage mixture. Drizzle with olive oil if desired. Carefully return pizzas to grill and grill for 3-4 minutes or until toppings are heated through and pizza dough is cooked through.
• Remove from grill, slice and serve immediately.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS SALAD

Steps:

• Set grill to medium-high and close top to allow heat to rise.
• Place asparagus in a large shallow dish and drizzle with all the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place asparagus directly on the grill once it has reached at last 400 degrees F.
• Close top and allow asparagus to cook directly on the grill for 3 minutes.
• Open top and flip asparagus cooking with the top open for 2-3 minutes. Check in on it frequently to make sure it gets charred but doesn't fully burn.
• Return asparagus to same dish you used for drizzling and allow to cook directly in dish (at least 10 minutes). This will give it an additional coating of olive oil if there's any remaining.
• Once cool, chop asparagus into 2 inches pieces and add to a large bowl.
• Top with parmesan, pistachios and any other greens or herbs you want to add.
• Squeeze half of lemon directly onto salad and mix to stir everything together.
• Serve at room temperature or cold from the fridge.
• Will keep in fridge for up to 3 days.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat grill to 450° surface temperature, which is the preferred temperature more most chicken and pork recipes. Preheat the grill pan also if thicker.
• Wash and trim asparagus. I like to cut off 1/2 inch of the bottom of the asparagus shaft.
• Mix olive oil with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• Pour the oil mixture on the cleaned asparagus and coat well. Clean hands work well here.
• Add a light coat of a higher temperature oil to your grill pan. Spread evenly over a grill pan.
• In three minutes, flip asparagus and grill until getting brown spots. Usually another three minutes for me. Total cooking time can vary from 5-10 minutes in total. Variables are your exact grill temperature, the grill pan, the thickness of the asparagus, and finally, your taste.
• Serve immediately. I like a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese to add even more taste.

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill over medium until the temperature is a steady 300ºF - 350ºF. Or you can preheat the oven to 400ºF.
• While the grill preheats, snap the tough ends off the asparagus.
• Wrap the asparagus spears with the strips of prosciutto. If the asparagus is thin, around 1/4″, group together 3 at a time to wrap with 1 strip of prosciutto.
• Once you've wrapped all the asparagus with prosciutto strips, brush them with the olive oil.
• Then lay them crosswise to the grill slats, and lower the heat to medium low. It's important to keep the temperature between that 300ºF- 350ºF range so that you don't have any flare ups.
• Or you can place them on a parchment lined baking sheet and roast for 8-12 minutes or until just tender. The timing will depend on the thickness of the asparagus spears.
• If grilling, cook the asparagus for 6-8 minutes or until just tender. As the asparagus cooks turn it 2-3 times to grill all the sides.
• Serve immediately with your choice of main dish. This dish is also great at room temperature and can be packed for a picnic as well.
• Drizzle with the optional reduced or aged balsamic vinegar for a super tasty variation.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS AND SHIITAKE TACOS

Steps:

• Heat grill on medium. In a large baking dish, combine oil, garlic, chipotle, and salt. Add asparagus, shiitakes, and green onions; toss to coat. Grill asparagus until tender and lightly charred, turning occasionally; 5 to 6 minutes. Grill shiitakes and green onions until lightly charred, turning occasionally; 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer vegetables to cutting board.
• Cut asparagus and green onions into 2" lengths and slice shiitakes. Serve with corn tortillas, guacamole, lime wedges, cilantro, and hot sauce.

SMOKY GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Light a grill.
• In a shallow dish, whisk the mayo with the oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, salt and cumin. Add the asparagus and toss. Let stand for 30 minutes.
• Grill the asparagus over moderately high heat, turning, until tender and blistered in spots, about 6 minutes.
• Serve warm.

BEET AND CUCUMBER RELISH WITH GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wrap each beet in foil. Roast until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 45 minutes to 1 hour. When cool enough to handle, trim beets and rub off skins with paper towels, or peel beets with a paring knife.
• Cut beets into 1/4-inch dice, and transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in cucumber, shallot, vinegar, 1 teaspoon oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Refrigerate until ready to use, up to 2 hours.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan until hot. Toss asparagus with remaining teaspoon oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Grill asparagus, turning once, until tender, 4 to 8 minutes (cooking time will vary depending on thickness of spears).
• Arrange asparagus on a platter, and let cool completely. Finely chop basil, and stir into beet relish. Using a slotted spoon, spoon beet relish over asparagus.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Clean your grill and preheat to 350°F.
• Trim the bottom 2 to 3 inches of the asparagus by snapping the ends off or cutting them with a knife.
• Place the asparagus in a bowl. Add the olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss until combined.
• Transfer on the grill grates using tongs. Make sure they are in an even layer horizontally on the grill grates. Close the grill lid and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook an additional 3 to 5 minutes, or until they have grill marks and are slightly crisp.
• Transfer to a serving platter. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and add freshly grated parmesan cheese if desired. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve while warm.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS, PROSCIUTTO, AND POACHED EGG

Steps:

• To poach the eggs, bring 6 to 8 inches of water to a boil in a large, deep saucepan. Prepare an ice bath. Add the vinegar to the boiling water and reduce the heat to a simmer. Crack 1 egg into a small cup or ramekin. Using a wooden spoon, stir the water at the edge of the pan twice in a circular motion to get the water moving, then add the egg to the center of the pan. Simmer gently for 1 1/2 minutes, or until the white is set but the yolk is still runny. With a slotted spoon, carefully transfer the egg to the ice bath. Skim and discard any foam that has risen to the top of the boiling water. Cook the remaining eggs in the same fashion, 1 at a time. (The eggs can be poached several hours ahead and stored in ice water in the refrigerator.)
• When you are ready to cook the asparagus, prepare a charcoal or gas grill for cooking over medium heat or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Hold an asparagus spear with your hands and bend it to break off the less tender bottom end. Trim all of the asparagus to the same length. If using medium or large asparagus, peel the stalks with a vegetable peeler. Spread the asparagus on the parchment-lined baking sheet, generously coat with canola oil, and season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange the asparagus on the grill or, working in batches, in the grill pan. Cook the asparagus until tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side, flipping with a narrow spatula. Arrange the asparagus on a platter.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a simmer. If you're a perfectionist, an aspiring three-star chef, or you just can't help yourself, use a small pair of scissors to trim any uneven edges from the poached eggs. Using a skimmer or a slotted spoon, lower the eggs into the simmering water for about 30 seconds, just to reheat. Remove the eggs and blot the bottoms with paper towels.
• Season the eggs with salt and pepper and place them around the asparagus. Arrange the prosciutto and torn croutons on the platter, then drizzle all of the components with olive oil and balsamic and sprinkle with fleur de sel and pepper.
