I just love, love, LOVE asparagus! This is a great recipe with a bit of a "gourmet" touch in the making of the sauce. It adds a world of flavor to the already awesome green crispy vegetable.

The asparagus was delicious! The sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste, but that's just personal preference. Overall, I really enjoyed this dish.
