Time 11m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb asparagus
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon paprika
salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Break off woody ends of asparagus.
  • In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, lemon zest and paprika and mix together well with a fork.
  • Lay the asparagus side by side and pierce with skewers to form a raft.
  • If you use bamboo skewers, don't forget to soak them for 30 minutes before using, so they don't catch fire.
  • Place asparagus rafts on the grill and brush with the olive oil mixture.
  • Cook to your desired tenderness (it takes almost no time at all), and season with salt and pepper.
