This was Dad’s grill specialty—simple, smoky, and sizzling in foil. He called it “green gold,” and we always fought for the crispiest spears. 🥬🔥💚
🥄 Ingredients:
1 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed
2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp lemon juice or zest (optional)
Salt and black pepper to taste
Optional: grated Parmesan, red pepper flakes for topping
Directions:
Prep the foil: Tear a large sheet of heavy-duty foil and lay it flat.
Assemble: Place asparagus in the center, drizzle with oil or butter, and sprinkle with garlic, lemon, salt, and pepper.
Seal it up: Fold the foil over the asparagus and crimp edges to form a sealed packet.
Grill: Place foil packet on a hot grill (medium-high heat) and cook for 10–12 minutes, flipping once halfway.
Unwrap & top: Carefully open foil (watch out for steam) and top with Parmesan or red pepper flakes if desired.
