CHARRED ASPARAGUS WITH GREEN GARLIC CHIMICHURRI



Charred Asparagus With Green Garlic Chimichurri image

Chimichurri is the South American green herb sauce that goes with just about everything. Easy to put together, it tastes best freshly prepared. When green garlic is in season in spring and early summer, use that; or substitute 2 or 3 regular garlic cloves at other times of the year. To keep it green and fresh tasting, add the vinegar just before serving. Char the asparagus in a hot cast-iron skillet or griddle, over hot coals, or under the broiler. Pencil-thin asparagus cooks quite quickly this way, but medium-size spears may be substituted.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons finely chopped green garlic
1/2 cup finely chopped parsley
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Salt and pepper
1 pound pencil-thin asparagus, tough ends snapped off
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
4 ounces crumbled feta
Handful of olives
Crushed red pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat a cast-iron pan or broiler, or prepare a charcoal grill. Make the chimichurri sauce: In a small bowl, stir together chopped green garlic, parsley, oregano, olive oil and 1/4 cup water. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Spread asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle very lightly with oil and sprinkle with salt.
  • Transfer asparagus to hot cast-iron pan or to a grill grate that is placed very close to live coals; alternatively if broiling, place pan as close to broiler element as possible. Let asparagus cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until nicely charred, with a few burnt and blistered spots. Asparagus cooked this way tastes best if slightly undercooked and still bright green.
  • Put cooked asparagus on a platter. Stir vinegar into chimichurri and spoon sauce generously over spears. Top with crumbled feta and olives, then sprinkle with crushed red pepper and serve.

ASPARAGUS WITH GREEN GARLIC



Asparagus With Green Garlic image

When you sauté or roast asparagus in hot olive oil, the asparagus will have a much more concentrated flavor than it would if steamed or blanched. Here I add the garlic to the pan once the asparagus is just about done, so that the garlic cooks only long enough to soften and sweeten. You can serve this skillet dish with grains or pasta, or with eggs -- fried, poached or scrambled. I find this asparagus so hard to resist that I decided to give you a range for the weight. One pound is adequate, but you might want to treat yourself to more than that.

Categories     easy, quick, weekday, side dish

Time 10m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 small bulb green garlic that has formed cloves
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 to 1 1/2 pounds asparagus, trimmed and cut on the diagonal into 2-inch lengths
Salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Separate the garlic bulb into cloves, remove the thick skins from each clove, and cut the garlic into thin slices.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet. Add the asparagus and salt to taste. Sauté until the asparagus is tender and the skin has shriveled slightly, about five minutes. Add the garlic, and continue to sauté for another minute until the garlic is translucent. Adjust salt, add the pepper and parsley, and serve.

Yield Serves 2 to 3

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon sliced garlic
2 thyme sprigs
10 ounces asparagus, ends trimmed
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender asparagus: Look for asparagus spears that are bright green, firm, and have tight tips. Avoid spears that are limp, wilted, or have brown or yellow spots.
  • Trim the asparagus: Cut off the woody ends of the asparagus spears. You can also peel the lower part of the spears if they are tough.
  • Cook the asparagus quickly: Asparagus cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked asparagus will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a variety of cooking methods: Asparagus can be roasted, grilled, sautéed, steamed, or boiled. Each cooking method produces a slightly different flavor and texture.
  • Add flavor to your asparagus: Asparagus can be seasoned with a variety of herbs, spices, and sauces. Some popular options include olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and balsamic vinegar.
