Ingredients
  

  • 2 bunches asparagus
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 lemon, zest and juice
  • freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Equipment

  • grill or grill pan

Method
 

  1. Wash the asparagus and dry well. Cut a couple of inches from the end where the tough part is. I usually bend one asparagus and see where it naturally breaks and that is where I make my cut with the rest of them.
    Toss with olive oil and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
    Grill on the pan for 8-10 minutes until you have nice grill marks but there is still some bite to the asparagus. Transfer on a plate and drizzle with some more olive oil. Zest a lemon on top and squeeze some lemon juice on top too. Finally, finish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
