Simple yet tasty way to serve asparagus. It is low cal too! I like to make the sauce in a large skillet and when ready to serve add the steamed asparagus to the skillet and roll them in the sauce - just for a minute you want the asparagus to still have some crunch

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb asparagus, Steamed until heated through but still crisp
1 shallot, peeled and crushed
2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 tablespoons dry white wine
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
pepper

Directions

1
Keep your asparagus warm.
2
Saute the shallot and garlic in the oil, low heat, until the the garlic turns golden about 10 minutes.
3
Whisk the lemon juice& wine together and add to the sauted shallot & garlic, add pepper.
4
Pour over steamed asparagus& serve.

A lovely, more healthy way to eat asparagus than I usually make (no, I'm not tellin'!), this went VERY well chopped and mixed in with some freekeh, a roasted young green wheat cereal/grain. (Besides, who could resist repeatedly saying, "FREEKeh! FREEKeh!" I mean, really.) I used a Ziplock Zip'n Steam bag to steam (in the microwave) 1 bunch of asparagus at 1.5 minutes (800 watt) and it came out crisp and delicious. I also reduced the lemon/wine mixture to thicken the sauce slightly. Yum! Thanks, Bergy!

Heavenly. I recommend doubling the sauce. I was out of shallots, so I used green onions. Crisp asparagus and a light sauce, excellent with Bergy's Lemon Asparagus Chicken #10993
