Ingredients
- 1 pound asparagus medium to large thickness
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove the bottom thick woody ends of the asparagus, about ¼ of the way down, and discard.
- Place the asparagus spears in a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Use your hands to toss the asparagus.
- Place the asparagus in a single layer on the grill grates perpendicular to the bars, and cook for 6-8 minutes with the lid open, rolling the asparagus to the other side halfway through using a spatula or tongs.
- Serve immediately with lemon wedges, if desired.
Notes
- Storage: It’s best to enjoy grilled asparagus immediately after cooking. However you can store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
