Bucks Italian Grilled Asparagus Recipes

HOW TO MAKE THE BEST GRILLED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium heat, about 350° to 400°F, and brush the grill grates clean.
• Remove the woody ends of the asparagus by snapping the ends off. Bend each stalk gently about 2/3 of the way down the stalk until it naturally breaks where the woody part begins. If desired, use a knife to trim the ends of the stalks to tidy up the cuts. Discard the ends.
• Place the asparagus spears in a shallow bowl or on a platter or baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and toss the spears with your hands to coat. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper and toss again.
• Place the asparagus across the grill grates perpendicular to the bars. Grill with the lid closed for 6 to 10 minutes or until the spears are tender and crisp. Use tongs to roll the spears for even grill marks.
• Transfer to a platter and if desired, drizzle with more olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. Can be served warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• PREP.
• Wash then cut the asparagus stalks down a bit (usually 1-2 inches) to remove the tougher parts.
• Put the asparagus into a large ziploc bag and pour the Zesty Italian Dressing over the asparagus. Make sure all of the spears are going the same way. This will make it easier to mix around in the sauce.
• After mincing the garlic (bottled minced garlic works too), put it all onto the asparagus in the bag.
• Roll the dressing and garlic around in the bag and leave in the fridge for at least two hours to 4 hours, longer will let the flavor really get into the asparagus.
• After marinating is done, pull the asparagus out and wrap, the long way, with a bacon strip. Use a toothpick on the top and bottom of the asparagus to keep it on during cooking.
• Drop a couple pinches of pepper to taste on the wrapped spears.
• COOKING - Times depend on thickness of the Asparagus Spear and Bacon.

• Cut off about 2 inches off on the big ends, place them in a casserole dish drizzle them with the oil then add the rest and move the mixture all over the asparagus- Make sure they are thoroughly coated.
• Place on already pre-heated grill- preferably medium heat. They only cook for 5-6 min on each side (Only need to role them once while grillng).
• And serve immediately, so cook them last or while you cook your steaks. ( to me they are great even if they get cold).
