Ingredients

How to make it

  • Using a sharp knife, cut off the tough ends of the asparagus. Peel stalks, if desired. If sauteeing: Heat 2 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil in a large saute pan (large enough to hold the stalks comfortably). Add the asparagus. Saute until tender but still quite firm, 4-5 minutes (the amount of time depends upon the thickness of the stalks).
  • If steaming: Fill the asparagus steamer with approximately 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil. Add the asparagus, cook until tender but still quite firm, 3-4 minutes (the amount of time depends upon the thickness of the stalks). Drain well, refresh under cold water, transfer to a servering plate.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, shallots, vinegar and lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon the dressing over the warm asparagus. Garnish with lemon wedges.
