Description

Learn how to grill asparagus in foil so that you don’t lose any spears through the grate! Simple ingredients and ready in 10 minutes. 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz. bunch asparagus
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp. sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high direct heat.
  2. Trim woody end of asparagus stalk by snapping or cutting it off. Add asparagus to a large piece of aluminum foil or to a grill basket.
  3. Drizzle asparagus with olive oil and season with sea salt. Roll up foil packet by rolling over long edges together and then folding each end to crimp shut.
  4. Grill foil packets for 5-8 minutes, until tender, but not stringy and mushy. Immediately open up foil packet or the asparagus will continue to cook and could potentially overcook. 
  5. Finish with flaky sea salt, black pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice if desired.

Notes

  • The grill time will depend on the thickness of your asparagus stalks, so be sure to adjust for thinner or thicker stalks.
