Asparagus With Lemon Dill Butter Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Snap off and discard the tough bottoms of the asparagus spears. If using large, thick asparagus, peel the lower ends with a vegetable peeler.
• Put butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add asparagus in one layer and season with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 cup water, cover, and bring to a simmer. Cook until the asparagus is firm-tender, about 3 minutes. Take care not to overcook them; they should still be bright green. (They will continue to cook a bit once the heat is off.) Remove the asparagus from the pan and place on a serving platter.
• Turn heat to high and simmer briskly until most of the liquid has evaporated, a minute or so. Add lemon juice and zest to the buttery juices. Turn off heat and stir in chives, parsley, tarragon and dill, if using. Check seasoning. Spoon the sauce over the asparagus, garnish with a few herb leaves, and serve.

Steps:

• Wash asparagus and trim off bottom of stems by about 2 inches. In a large skillet, bring about 1/2 inch of water to a rapid boil. Season the water with salt and add the asparagus. Cook the asparagus for 2-3 minutes or until bright green and just tender. Drain the asparagus and add butter to the skillet. Stir in the zest and juice. Return the drained asparagus to the skillet and toss to coat. Serve immediately

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a shallow dish, toss the asparagus, olive oil and salt and pepper together.
• Lay the asparagus in one level layer.
• Place in oven and roast, uncovered for approximately 10 minutes, or until the asparagus is just tender.
• Transfer to a serving plate.
• Whisk the lemon juice, lemon zest, dill, olive oil and honey together in a small bowl.
• Top the asparagus with some of the dressing and keep the rest on the side.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, bring water and salt to a boil; add the asparagus. Cover and cook over medium heat until crisp-tender, about 6-8 minutes; drain. Transfer to a serving platter and keep warm. In the same skillet over low heat, stir cream cheese and milk until smooth. Stir in dill, garlic salt and pepper. Pour over asparagus.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss asparagus with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Roast until tender and browned in spots, 20 minutes. Toss with red-pepper flakes, dill and lemon zest.

Steps:

• Cut the lobster tails along each side of the underside with scissors.
• Pull the lobster flesh away from the shells and cut into thick slices.
• Top and tail the snow peas.
• Break off the woody end of the asparagus.
• Boil, steam or microwave the asparagus until barely tender, add the snow peas and cook for 1 minute longer. Drain and refresh under cold water until no longer warm.
• Heat the butter in a pan, add green onions, lemon rind and juice.
• Add the lobster, stir fry until the lobster is just tender then add the pine nuts, asparagus and snow peas. Stir until heated through.

Steps:

• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Coat asparagus with vegetable and arrange on a baking sheet. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
• Roast in preheated oven until lightly browned at the tips, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine lemon juice, butter, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in on high in microwave until butter is completely melted, about 1 minute; stir to combine. Pour butter mixture over roasted asparagus and toss to coat.
