Ingredients
  • 10 stalk asparagus
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
Directions
  1. Snap off the woody ends of each stalk and discard. Heat the olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add the asparagus, making sure that they all lay flat in the pan in a single layer. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and rotate them until they begin to brown, about 5-7 minutes. Once they begin to brown, add the lemon juice. Add the parsley and continuously spoon the juice over the asparagus until the stalks are dark green and the heads are a deep brown. Serve, garnished with additional parsley.
