How to Make Grilled Asparagus

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds a cheesy flavor.

Rinse the asparagus and cut off any tough ends, leaving the tips on.

In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, olive oil, lemon zest, sugar, salt, and pepper.

Place the asparagus spears in a shallow dish and drizzle the marinade over them. Refrigerate for 2 hours.

Heat the grill to medium and place the asparagus in a single layer on the grill. Use aluminum foil or a grill basket if needed for small spears.

Grill the asparagus for 6 minutes, then turn it over with tongs and grill for another 6 minutes until tender and grill marks appear.

Remove the asparagus from the grill and transfer it to a side plate.

Drizzle any leftover marinade over the asparagus and cover it with tin foil for 3 minutes before serving.
