Excellent dish! I did use more olive oil, and since I like my asparagus still crispy, but cooked more than just heated through, I added it first with the garlic and sauteed a few minutes before adding the peppers. I threw in an extra clove of garlic for good measure. Thanks for another great one, Bergy!

    Amazing! That is the only way that I could describe this simple yet elegant looking dish. It was enjoyed by all, including my 4 and 7 year old. I think that next time I will take your suggestion and partially steam the asparagus first so that it's not quite as crunchy. Thank-you for a wonderful recipe.

    Very good and tasty. I needed an easy asparagus stovetop recipe and this fit the bill. I served this with lasagne and garlic cheese bread. I used a whole red bell pepper since the asparagus was thin and therefore, a large amount. I also used extra garlic since we like it. Thanks for a tasty treat during asparagus season.

    YUMMY! And, for the record, I am not a "green veggie" eater! But this was wonderful! I am always looking for new ways to get my veggie intake, and thanks to Bergy, I will now add "Asparagus" to my likeable veggie list!
