A very rich side, sinfully delish served with grilled pork, or any meat really! From The River Cafe, London. This sauce would be good with grilled pork tenderloin, or steaks, with a spoon... :-)

GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH GORGONZOLA BUTTER



Grilled Asparagus With Gorgonzola Butter image

The Gorgonzola butter is heavenly, and I think I might just use any leftovers to butter a nice loaf of bread. I found this recipe on epicurious.com, and it originally came from Bon Appetit September 2000 by Allen Susser, Chef Allen's, Miami, FL. YUMMY! Serviing size is estimated because it was not listed.

THE BEST GRILLED ASPARAGUS



The Best Grilled Asparagus image

We found that the best way to grill asparagus is to lay it right on the grill grates at an angle--no foil packet or grilling basket necessary. We jazzed ours up with tangy, creamy feta and fresh mint. To get a good char, be sure to use medium-sized asparagus -- no pencil-thin stalks here!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 bunch medium asparagus (about 3/4 pound)
Juice of 1 lemon (about 1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, finely grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese (about 1 ounce)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium heat. Chop the tough, woody ends off the asparagus (about 1 inch) and peel another inch of the stalks.
  • Whisk the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Add the asparagus and toss until well coated.
  • Put the asparagus on the grill at an angle so the stalks don't fall through the grates. Grill, flipping halfway through cooking, until the asparagus begin to char, the pointy ends start to crisp and the stalks are just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a platter and sprinkle with the feta and mint.
