The Best Way to grill asparagus
Hey there! Want to make some awesome grilled asparagus? Here's the easiest way to do it:
- Wash your asparagus and snap off the tough ends at the bottom
- Put the asparagus in a baking dish or plate and drizzle with olive oil
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper
- Heat your grill to medium-high (around 400°F)
- Place asparagus across the grill grates (perpendicular so they don't fall through!)
- Cook for 5-8 minutes, rolling them occasionally with tongs
- They're done when they're tender but still a bit crispy
Pro Tips:
- Use thicker asparagus spears - they're easier to grill
- Don't walk away! Asparagus can burn quickly
- If you want extra flavor, squeeze some lemon juice on top when done
