Ingredients
- 1 pound asparagus about 32 thin spears, spears
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (plus more to finish)
- black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Rinse the asparagus and trim off the woody ends. To do this, you can simply snap off the end of the spears.
- In a large dish, season the asparagus with the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss with your hands so the spears are well-coated.
- Let them marinate at least an hour if you have the time, or longer. If not, you can cook right away.
- When ready to cook, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Arrange the asparagus spears on the grill in a manner that they won't fall through the grates. You can also use a grill basket if you have one.
- Grill the asparagus for 3-8 minutes (depending on the thickness of your asparagus and the heat of your grill), turning occasionally, until they are tender and lightly charred.
- Toss it back into the dish with the vinegar getting all the flavor over it, then transfer it to a platter.
Notes
- See notes above for storage and variations.
