Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Asparagus

    Rinse the jumbo asparagus under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Trim the woody ends of the asparagus (about 1-2 inches from the bottom).

  2. 2

    Make the Persillade Sauce

    In a medium bowl, combine the chopped parsley, minced garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper. Mix well to combine and set aside.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).

  2. 4

    Season the Asparagus

    In a large mixing bowl, toss the trimmed asparagus with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. 5

    Grill the Asparagus

    Place the asparagus on the grill grates and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the asparagus is tender and has grill marks.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Remove the grilled asparagus from the grill and place it on a serving platter.

  2. 7

    Add Persillade Sauce

    Drizzle the prepared persillade sauce over the grilled asparagus.
