How to Make Asparagus Amandine
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread sliced almonds on a baking sheet and toast for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden, shaking the pan halfway through.
- While almonds toast, snap off the tough ends of the asparagus spears by bending them until they break naturally. Discard the tough ends.
- If using thick asparagus, use a vegetable peeler to gently remove any tough outer scales.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add asparagus to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender-crisp.
- Remove asparagus from skillet and transfer to a serving platter.
- Sprinkle toasted almonds and salt generously over the asparagus.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
