ASPARAGUS WITH BUTTER LEMON AND MINT DRIZZLE
This is wonderful when that spring asparagus arrives on the supermarket shelves. I've also made this using lime with great results. This makes a light amount of the drizzle double it if you would like all of the asparagus well coated.

Steps:
- Simmer, steam or roast the asparagus until tender but still firm.
- Use a paper towel to remove any residual water from the asparagus.
- Place the butter in a microwave proof container (I use a glass measuring cup) along with the lemon juice and chopped mint.
- While the asparagus is cooking warm the butter to the point where it's not quite all melted.
- Remove from the microwave and stir to finish melting the butter and mix the lemon juice and mint nicely together.
- Drizzle the butter mixture over the still hot asparagus.
- Sprinkle the lemon zest over the top if using.
