Comment préparer Asparagus With Basil Parmesan Butter
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add asparagus and cook until crisp-tender, about 3-4 minutes.
- Immediately transfer asparagus to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and maintain vibrant green color. Drain well.
- Preheat broiler to high.
- While the broiler preheats, prepare the parmesan butter: In a medium bowl, beat softened butter until light and fluffy.
- Stir in Parmesan-Reggiano cheese, fresh basil, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Arrange asparagus spears in a single layer on a broiler-safe baking sheet.
- Spoon or drizzle the parmesan butter mixture evenly over the asparagus.
- Broil for 2-3 minutes, watching carefully, until the topping is lightly browned and bubbly. Avoid burning.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
