Addictive Asparagus image

From the Food52 website. This was soooo amazing the first time I made it that my husband ate the rest in the middle of the night - it was supposed to be my lunch the next day!!! How can you go wrong with asparagus, leeks, pancetta, garlic, orange zest, parsley and pine nuts. Savory, fresh, addictive!!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I often make a double batch of the sauce and use it on other vegetables, like broccoli and cauliflower.

I've tried many asparagus recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The secret is in the lemon-garlic-Parmesan sauce. It's so simple, yet so incredibly delicious.
