Grilled Asparagus With Saffron Aioli image

This is Bobby Flay's recipe that was featured in Bon Appetit. I love this sauce! I have served it over grilled, roasted and blanched asparagus! It's even better with homemade mayonnaise.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my asparagus turned out soggy. The aioli was good, though.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. The aioli is also a great dipping sauce for other vegetables or grilled meats.

I substituted Greek yogurt for the mayonnaise in the aioli and it was still delicious. The asparagus was grilled to perfection and the aioli was a great accompaniment.

The grilled asparagus was a bit too charred for my taste, but the saffron aioli was amazing! I'll definitely be making the aioli again.
