Perfectly steamed asparagus spears grilled on the BBQ in foil for easy clean up. (Also you don't have to worry about them falling through the grill.) A dinner for two side that goes well with just about any protein... salmon, steak, chicken, you name it!
1/2 lb asparagus, trimmed
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsps olive oil
2 tsps minced garlic
zest of 1/2 lemon
salt and pepper to taste (optional)
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Combine the lemon juice and olive oil and toss the asparagus to coat. Lay them in a single layer on a large piece of foil. Top with minced garlic, lemon zest, salt and pepper if using.
Take a second piece of foil and cover, folding each side tightly to seal. Place on the barbecue on direct heat for 10-20 minutes depending on how you like your asparagus and the thickness of the spears. I like mine tender-crisp so I would lean towards just 10 minutes.
When ready open the foil packet and serve with lemon slices.
Serves 2
