Ingredients

  • 1 lb Wild asparagus (espárragos trigueros)
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp Sea salt
  • 1 tsp Lemon juice

Instructions

  1. 1Rinse the 1 lb Wild asparagus under cool water. Snap off the tough, woody ends of each stalk. Discard the ends.
  2. 2Place a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Heat it until it is very hot, about 400°F (200°C).
  3. 3Place the trimmed 1 lb Wild asparagus in a single layer on a clean work surface. Drizzle the 2 tbsp Olive oil evenly over the asparagus. Sprinkle the 1/4 tsp Sea salt over the asparagus.
  4. 4Carefully place the seasoned asparagus onto the hot grill or grill pan. Grill for 5 to 7 minutes. Turn the asparagus occasionally so all sides get lightly browned and tender. They should still have a slight crispness when you bite into them.
  5. 5Use tongs to move the grilled asparagus from the grill or grill pan to a serving plate.
  6. 6Drizzle the 1 tsp Lemon juice over the cooked asparagus. Serve immediately.
