Grilled Asparagus
Servings: 4 servings
Calories: 85cal
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh asparagus spears
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat grill to 425 F.
- Trim off the woody ends of the asparagus and place the spears into a bowl or dish large enough that they can lay flat.
- Drizzle with olive oil and season to taste with Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper. Toss to coat.
- Add the asparagus to the grill. You should hear a sizzle when the oiled spears hit the grates. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side.
Notes
I have found that the perfect grilling temperature for this veggie is just below high. Once I pull the meat off the grill I adjust the temp and let it heat up. Closing the grill can speed up this process.
