Grilled Asparagus Recipe

Grilling Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the Grill

   Start by preheating your grill to a medium-high temperature, around 400°F (200°C). This will ensure even cooking of the asparagus.

2. 2

   Prepare the Asparagus

   Rinse the fresh asparagus under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Trim the tough ends of the asparagus by snapping them off or cutting about an inch from the bottom.

3. 3

   Season the Asparagus

   In a large bowl, combine the trimmed asparagus, olive oil, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and garlic powder. Toss well until the asparagus is evenly coated.

4. 4

   Grill the Asparagus

   Place the seasoned asparagus directly on the grill grates. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the asparagus is tender and has grill marks. Be careful not to overcook, as they can become mushy.

5. 5

   Serve

   Once grilled to perfection, remove the asparagus from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Optionally, drizzle with additional lemon juice or sprinkle with more salt and pepper to taste, then serve immediately.
