Sauteed Garlic Asparagus
This recipe is the best sauteed asparagus recipe you will ever find (there, I said it).
Generally, this recipe makes about 2-3 servings but I can eat it ALL…unfortunately (for my stomach), I had a lady over and had to reserve half for her. Ugh.

About 20 min
Ingredients:
1 lb. bunch of asparagus
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon balsamic vinaigrette

- Cut the bottom 1″-2″ of the asparagus stalk off and throw it away (the white part).
- Bring a skillet up to medium-high heat. When it is fully heated (about a minute), add the olive oil, balsamic vinaigrette, and minced garlic. After about 30 seconds, add the asparagus.
- Every couple of minutes, stir the asparagus around in the skillet for about 10 minutes.

So damn easy and so damn good. Enjoy, dudes!

AMAZING. I wolfed down the whole lb before i had a chance to get it on a plate or use silverware. I will be making this again tomorrow. Mine were black though bc i dumped in too much balsamic, but whatevs. I used a bit of sea salt. wow, i wish i had more.

Yeah maybe a little less balsamic. ALSO, if you’re super into presentation, you can blanch the asparagus before you cook it. Here’s how (for next time):
1. Bring a pot to a boil
2. Drop asparagus into the boiling water.
3. Cook for 1 minute.
4. Drain.
Then hit the instructions from this recipe. Feel me? Lemme know if u try it!

I boiled them first tonight, it made them neon, very pretty. Guess I still used too much balsamic bc brown in the end. Can’t wait to make it again tomorrow.

For another variation try wrapping about 2-3 in bacon…For an ultra dude experience, toss on the grill.
