Notes
- Prep asparagus. Wash and trim the stalks before using. The woody ends of the asparagus are tough and need to be trimmed. Bend the asparagus stalks, it will snap at the tender part right where the thicker portion begins.
- Or use a sharp paring knife and trim where the asparagus becomes thicker. The thicker portion may have a slightly different color.
- STORE leftovers in an airtight in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat in the microwave, skillet, or broil in the oven.
