Ingredients for Asparagus With Melted Brie

  • 1 pound asparagus
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • Brie Cheese

How to Make Asparagus With Melted Brie

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Snap off the tough ends of 1 pound of asparagus.
  3. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook for 2-4 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
  4. Remove the asparagus from the water and drain well. Pat dry with paper towels.
  5. Place the asparagus in an oven-safe dish. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of melted butter and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt.
  6. Arrange 4 ounces of brie, sliced, over the asparagus.
  7. Place the dish under the preheated grill until the brie is melted and bubbly, about 2-3 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy the delicious combination of flavors and textures!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
