GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH LEMON AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium.
• In a shallow baking dish, toss the asparagus with the oil to coat well. Add the salt, and pepper and toss.
• Place the asparagus on the grill in a single layer, and cook, turning, until marked and tender, about 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a platter, sprinkle with the lemon juice and drizzle with olive oil, to taste. Cover with aluminum foil and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

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 ASPARAGUS WITH OLIVE OIL, LEMON & PARMESAN

Steps:

• Heat a large griddle pan, remove the hard ends from the asparagus and dry griddle on both sides until nicely marked (about 5 minutes).
• As soon as they're ready, put them on the plates and dress with a good squeeze of lemon juice and about twice as much olive oil. (The quantities listed in the ingredients above are really rough as you just need to dress this dish to your own taste.).
• Season with salt & pepper to taste and then add freshly shaved or grated parmesan cheese.
