Awesome Asparagus with Parmigianino & Lime

Awesome Asparagus with Parmigianino & Lime

Serves 4 (as a starter)

What You Need

  • 16 Asparagus spears
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 30ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 15ml Balsamic vinegar
  • A small wedge of Parmigianino Reggiano
  • 2 tsp’s Sea salt
  • 1 tsp Cracked black pepper

I think this is one of the simplest, yet most impressive alfresco snacks or starters that you can prepare. I prefer baby or young asparagus with lots of Parmigianino, but please remember to shave; do not grate!

What You Do

  1. Mix lime juice, oil and balsamic plus ½ salt & black pepper
  2. Coat asparagus and grill slowly on medium, turn frequently and baste occasionally.
  3. Remove asparagus once cooked through, lightly cover with shavings of Parmigianino and drizzle remaining lime, oil & balsamic, season with salt & black pepper to taste.
