Ingredients
- 450 grams asparagus
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Wash the asparagus thoroughly under cold water. Trim the woody ends by snapping them off where they naturally break.
Step 2
Finely chop the fresh rosemary and mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, whole grain mustard, chopped rosemary, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to make the glaze.
Step 4
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and swirl to coat the surface evenly.
Step 5
Add the asparagus to the skillet and sauté for 4-5 minutes, turning them occasionally until they start to lose their raw crunch but remain bright green.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to low and pour the mustard and rosemary glaze over the asparagus. Toss gently to coat the asparagus evenly with the mixture.
Step 7
Cook for another 2-3 minutes, letting the flavors meld and the asparagus become tender but not overcooked.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the asparagus to a serving plate. Serve warm as a flavorful side dish.
