Pan Roasted Asparagus with Thyme
Fresh asparagus made simple!
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 5 large fresh thyme sprigs
- 1¼ pounds slender asparagus spears, trimmed
- sea salt or kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Heat the oil with the butter and thyme sprigs in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the asparagus in a single layer; using tongs, toss to coat. Saute, turning often, until crisp-tender and beginning to brown in spots, about 8 minutes. If you have too many asparagus, you may need to do this in two batches.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve.
