Our Test Kitchen used lemon juice and a pinch of mint to give a light fresh taste to tender asparagus. The pretty spears cook quickly in the microwave. Ingredients:
1/2 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed |
2 tablespoons water |
1 tablespoon butter, melted |
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon dried mint |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon lemon juice |
dash white pepper |
Directions:
1. Place asparagus and water in a 1-qt. microwave-safe dish. Cover and microwave on high for 5 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain. Combine butter, mint, salt, lemon juice and pepper. Drizzle over asparagus; toss to coat. Yield: 2 servings.
