ASPARAGUS, SQUASH, AND RED PEPPER SAUTé



Asparagus, Squash, and Red Pepper Sauté image

An appealing vegetable trio is enlivened by a wine-scented sauté.

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 tablespoons light olive oil
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 medium red bell peppers, cut into short strips
2 medium zucchini or yellow summer squash, halved lengthwise and sliced 1/4 inch thick
6 ounces slender asparagus, bottoms trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the oil and wine in a wide skillet. Add the bell peppers, squash, and asparagus, and sauté over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until all the vegetables are tender-crisp to your liking, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
  • Now that the seasons for fresh produce have been stretched by imports, it's not quite as much of a thrill to see the first asparagus of early spring. A pity, since I once considered the arrival of asparagus to the market as much an awaited sign of spring as forsythia and robins. Still, I like to stick with vegetables that are in season by buying locally. Freshly picked, slender asparagus is more agreeable to my eyes and palate than thick, stringy imported winter asparagus.
  • Spring asparagus needs to have only about half an inch trimmed off the bottom of the stalks; scraping is unnecessary when the stalks are slender. Asparagus makes a good side dish, simply steamed, with a tiny bit of nonhydrogenated margarine or whipped butter added. Microwave cooking yields good results; place the stalks in a small casserole dish with just enough water to keep them moist. Cover and cook until tender-crisp to your liking. How long this takes depends on the quantity and quality of the asparagus, so test often and serve right away.
  • Another great way to prepare slender asparagus is to cut it into 2- to 3-inch lengths and sauté it in olive oil with minced garlic.
