I'm not a huge asparagus fan, and only have a few recipes for it that I really like. This is one of them. Even the Asparagus lovers raved!

My family loved asparagus this way. In fact, they even asked for seconds and that was a first.

We made this to go with our ham for Easter dinner. The flavors marry perfectly, allowing the fresh asparagus taste to come through, rather than overwhelming it as so many recipes do. Everyone, even those who did not usually care for asparagus, loved this one. It will make a great veggie dish for BBQ also.
