Gebratener Spargel

Zutaten

• 1 pound asparagus
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Prepare the Asparagus – Rinse the asparagus under cool water, then dry well with a towel to remove excess moisture on the surface. Using a knife, trim off the tough, fibrous ends, about 1 to 2 inches from the bottom.

2. 2

   Pan-Fry the Asparagus – Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the olive oil. Add the asparagus pieces and cook, turning with tongs as needed for even browning, until bright green, crisp-tender, and lightly browned, about 6 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness.

3. 3

   Cook the Garlic – Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the butter, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stirring constantly until the butter is melted and the garlic is fragrant and lightly browned, about 30 to 60 seconds.
