This recipe elevates the classic grilled asparagus with a zesty lemon garlic marinade, perfect for a quick and flavorful side dish.
Trim the tough ends off the asparagus.
Use a sharp knife to ensure clean cuts and remove only the woody parts.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the juice of the lemon, minced garlic, olive oil, soy sauce, and black pepper.
Whisking thoroughly ensures the flavors are well combined.
Place the asparagus in the bowl with the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Let it sit for 15 minutes.
Toss occasionally to ensure all pieces are well coated.
Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill is hot before adding the asparagus for even cooking.
Place the marinated asparagus on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until tender and slightly charred.
Avoid overcrowding the grill to ensure even cooking.
Serve the grilled asparagus warm, garnished with a slice of lemon if desired.
For added flavor, sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt before serving.
