Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon Sherry wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons butter, melted, divided
2 ounces sliced pancetta (Italian bacon)
1 pound thick asparagus, tough ends trimmed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Whisk vinegar and mustard in small bowl. Gradually whisk in oil and 1 tablespoon melted butter. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.

This recipe was a little too bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more herbs and spices next time.

This recipe was a disaster! The asparagus was burnt and the vinaigrette was too salty. I couldn't even eat it.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The asparagus was a little too tough for my liking and the vinaigrette was a bit too tangy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
