How to Make Asparagus And Cashews
- Snap off the tough ends of 1 pound asparagus spears.
- Steam asparagus until tender-crisp, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside in a serving dish.
- While asparagus steams, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
- Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of dried marjoram, and 1/2 cup of roasted, unsalted cashews to the melted butter.
- Simmer for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cashews are slightly softened and the sauce is slightly thickened.
- Pour the cashew sauce generously over the steamed asparagus and serve immediately.
