Ingredients
- 1 pound asparagus
- 4 cups butterleaf lettuce
- 1 cup baby peas thawed or 1 cup sugar snap peas, sliced diagonally
- 1 cup sliced radishes
- 1 green onion thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- ¼ cup toasted hazelnuts or walnuts, roughly chopped
For the Dressing
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon honey
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Snap off the bottom of each asparagus spear and cut each spear on a bias in thirds.
- Prepare a medium bowl of ice water.
- In a medium skillet, bring ⅓ cup of water to a low boil over medium-high heat. Add the asparagus spears and cook uncovered for 3 to 5 minutes or just until tender crisp. Thinner spears may cook faster, while thicker spears may need extra time.
- Drain the asparagus and transfer to the prepared ice bath to cool for 5 minutes. Drain well and pat dry.
- In a large bowl, add the vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, honey, and garlic powder. While whisking, gradually drizzle in the olive oil until combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Add the asparagus, peas, radish, green onion, and dill to the dressing and toss well to coat. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the lettuce on a serving platter and gently spoon the asparagus mixture overtop. Drizzle with any remaining dressing.
- Garnish with chopped hazelnuts.
Notes
- Store asparagus salad in the fridge in a covered container for up to 1 day.
