Asparagus: It Just Needs Heat

The best recipes are the simplest. Asparagus as I hear is tricky for some. The secret is that it really only needs heat whether from the grill, the oven or a saute pan. A little olive oil, salt and pepper and it is a breeze.

A recipe for 4-6

2 tablespoon olive oil

20 stalks of fresh asparagus

1 pinch black pepper

1 pinch kosher salt

Heat the oil on a  griddle over high heat and place the asparagus on it. Season with the pepper and cook for 5-6 minutes until slightly browned.
