Miso Grilled Asparagus Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Wash the asparagus under cold water and trim the tough ends off.

  2. 2

    Make the Marinade

    In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey or maple syrup, and minced garlic until smooth.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Asparagus

    Place the asparagus in a large bowl or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the miso marinade over the asparagus and toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Grill the Asparagus

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated asparagus directly on the grill grates. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the asparagus is tender and has nice grill marks.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the grilled asparagus from the grill. Sprinkle with black sesame seeds and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve warm.
