Grilled Asparagus

My favorite way to prepare asparagus. Tossed with the most basic of seasonings, asparagus goes from drab to fab with a few minutes spent on the grill!
Ingredients
- 1 bunch asparagus, woody ends trimmed and discarded shopping list
- 1 TBSP. extra-virgin olive oil shopping list
- 1/2 tsp salt shopping list
- 1/4 tsp. fresh-cracked black pepper shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat grill to medium-high. Prepare asparagus; trim off the woody ends and discard. An easy way to determine where to trim, grab each end of a piece and bend the asparagus until it snaps easily. Trim off the ends of the spears where the piece snapped.
- Place asparagus in a gallon-size Ziploc bag and pour oil, salt, and pepper into bag. Zip bag and shake gently to lightly coat asparagus.
- Using tongs, place spears onto grill and cook about 3 minutes. Turn over when spears begin to caramelize. Grill another 3 minutes, or until spears are lightly caramelized and crisp-tender. Serve.
- Fun fact: Did you know it is proper ettiquette to eat asparagus with your fingers?
