Baked Asparagus is seriously delicious, and it goes really well with this sauce that my husband makes. Asparagus is really easy to make, and its incredibly healthy for you, which makes it perfect as a side dish for dinner, or even just something to snack on when you get hungry.
If you've never made fresh asparagus before, you want to remember that when you're trimming the asparagus, you dont want to use a knife. If you hold the asparagus with two hands, placing one hand at the very end of the stalk, and the other hand in the middle of the stalk, you can slowly/gently bend the asparagus and it will snap by itself at its natural breaking point. Here is the recipe that my husband follows when he makes the asparagus and sauce for us:
INGREDIENTS:
2 Bunches of fresh, trimmed asparagus
Cooking spray
Salt and Pepper
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 Cup butter
2 Teaspoons balsamic vinegar
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 400
Place Asparagus on baking pan, coat with cooking spray, and season with salt and pepper to taste
Bake Asparagus for 12-15 minutes (shorter or longer time depending of desired level of tenderness)
Melt butter in sauce pan, mix in soy sauce, and balsamic vinegar and pour sauce over cooked asparagus.
Serve and Enjoy!!
