Awesome Asparagus image

I love this recipe because it is simple, quick and tasty. The asparagus is tender/crisp. WE have also used feta cheese either with or without the parm cheese to twist the flavor a little- great! Since we are on a low carb diet this recipe really brightens up our menu.

Time 11m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 bunch asparagus, washed and trimmed (usually a 1 pound bunch)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • In medium fry pan (preferably non stick), heat oil and butter on med-high heat. Place asparagus in pan trying to get in a single layer so all can cook evenly. Season with the salt and pepper (adjusting to taste), cover with a lid to help "steam" the asparagus for about 5-6 minutes, tossing occasionally with tongs.
  • When done to your likeness of crisp or tender, toss in the parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
