Ingredients

4 servings

10 oz . (280g) young asparagus
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
salt (to taste)
3 dashes ground black pepper
lemon juice (optional)

Steps

Cut the bottom part of the asparagus stems, about 1-2 inches (2.5cm-5cm). Heat up a skillet on medium heat and add the melted butter. Saute the garlic until slightly browned before adding the asparagus. Toss them with a spatula to combine well with the garlic.
Add salt and ground black pepper. Add a squirt or two of lemon juice, if using. Once the asparagus becomes tender and just cooked, remove from heat and serve immediately. DO NOT overcook the asparagus.
