Tender asparagus grilled with olive oil, sea salt, and fresh lemon for a simple, flavorful side dish ready in minutes.
# What You’ll Need:
→ Vegetables
01 - 1 lb fresh asparagus spears, woody ends trimmed
→ Oil & Seasoning
02 - 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
03 - 1/2 tsp flaky sea salt or kosher salt
04 - 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
→ Garnish
05 - 1 lemon, cut into wedges
# How To Make It:
01 - Heat grill to medium-high temperature, approximately 400°F.
02 - Rinse asparagus spears thoroughly and remove tough woody ends from the base.
03 - Arrange asparagus on a large tray or platter. Drizzle olive oil evenly over spears and toss to coat thoroughly.
04 - Sprinkle sea salt and black pepper uniformly over the oiled asparagus.
05 - Place asparagus perpendicular across grill grates to prevent falling through, or transfer to a grill basket for easier handling.
06 - Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until spears develop light char marks and become fork-tender.
07 - Transfer grilled asparagus to serving platter. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over top and accompany with additional lemon wedges.
