Sautéed asparagus cooks quickly with olive oil, garlic, and butter, and is finished with lemon juice and parmesan cheese. It's an easy spring side!

Categories Easter Mother's Day spring side dish

Time 15m

Yield 3-4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 bunch of asparagus (about 1 1/4 lb.)
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
1/2 lemon
2 tbsp. grated parmesan cheese, for serving

Steps:

Trim the woody ends from the base of the asparagus spears by cutting off the bottom 2 inches or by snapping it off with your hands.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add the asparagus in a single layer and cook, turning occasionally, until lightly golden and almost tender, 8 to 10 minutes. (Cut a small piece from the end of one asparagus to see if it's near tender.)
Reduce the heat to low. Add the butter, garlic, salt and pepper and stir to coat the asparagus. Cook until the garlic is softened and fragrant, 1 to 2 more minutes. Immediately transfer to a serving plate.
Just before serving, squeeze the juice from the lemon half over the asparagus and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

QUICK SAUTEED ASPARAGUS - HCG FRIENDLY

Quick Sauteed Asparagus - Hcg Friendly image

A quick, flavorful recipe I came up with that fits into the Dr. Simeons Hcg Protocol during VLCD phase. Add spices to taste. **Trimming the Asparagus: Just hold each end and snapping it -- it will naturally break off the tough part. You keep the flower end for cooking (and should have nice longer spears). If you like, the "tough" ends can be kept to be used in vegetable stock or for other used later. Saw this on Cook Yourself thin!

QUICK CIDER VINEGAR DRESSING

Quick Cider Vinegar Dressing image

This is a salad dressing I came up with while following Dr. Simeons HCG Protocol. It is "legal" meaning it complies with all aspects of VLCD for those following the protocol. Anyone on this plan knows the VLCD phase is restrictive and can get boring - so spices are our friends! Great on spinach, lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions - you name it. Add your protein and away you go! You can really vary your flavor depending on the combination of spices you use - this is a basic grouping...I add/adjust depending on the flavors I crave when. I love this with grilled shrimp to make my salad...on cucumbers .... with grilled chicken. Even with lettuce and a grilled burger (4% Laura's lean beef in a lettuce wrap) and a side salad.
