GINGERED ASPARAGUS

I am delighted to have Alicia Wood of The Lush List back in the kitchen with us today serving up GINGER ASPARAGUS. You guys know how much I am not a fan of cooking, so that is why I bring in those who have that passion.

I hope you love veggies, but if not, you will change your mind if you should try this one because it is to die for!! I usually alway try Alicia’s recipes before I post so that I can give my own take on the recipe. I might not be the cook, but I am the biggest “foodie” ever and love trying new dishes!!

Gingered Asparagus is so colorful, has lot’s of flavor and perfect for a spring dish!

Soooo here’s…………Alicia!

Hi!  It’s Alicia from The Lush List again back to share a one of my favorite recipes with you.  This Gingered Asparagus is so easy, even a non-cook can make it.  It is perfect as a side dish or for a cocktail party.

The recipe is from Frances Schultz’ book Atlanta at Table.  You might know Frances from her stint as a columnist at House Beautiful documenting the renovation/memoir of her East Hampton Cottage “Bee Cottage.”

I found this recipe not long after my husband, Scott, and I were married and it became one of my standard cocktail party recipes and also one I serve as a side dish.  Friends would ask me to bring it when we co-hosted showers and parties…yes, it’s that good.

Here are the ingredients for this recipe. Note: 2 lbs will serve 8 as a side dish. Double it for fors d’oeuvres for 20.

INGREDIENTS

2 lbs thin asparagus
1 tbs butter
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 heaping tbs grated fresh ginger (peel then grate on Microplane)
⅓ c chicken stock
¼ c olive oil
¼ fresh lemon juice
2 tbs soy sauce (I used gluten free Tamari)
1 c cherry or grape tomatoes, diced
¼ c finely chopped scallions

Enjoy!
