Number Of Ingredients 2

1 bunch asparagus
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Set up a steamer, fill the bottom with water and bring to a boil. If the asparagus are very thick, peel them. Start about 2-inch down from the tip of the stalk and peel. It is not necessary to peel thin asparagus. Cut the asparagus to fit into your steamer basket. Cover and steam until the asparagus are bright green and tender, but still somewhat crisp, about 6 to 8 minutes for thick asparagus and 3 to 5 minutes for thin asparagus. Remove from the steamer and season with salt and pepper.

The steamed asparagus was a bit overcooked for my taste, but the lemon butter sauce was spot on.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I added some garlic and Parmesan cheese to the lemon butter sauce and it was delicious!

Followed the recipe exactly and my asparagus turned out soggy. Not sure what went wrong.

Nice and easy recipe. The asparagus was a bit bland, but that's probably because I didn't add enough salt. Overall, a good starting point for a steamed asparagus dish.
