Ingredients
Gremolata:
- 1⁄2 cup Wonderful Pistachios No Shells Lightly Salted, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3⁄4 cup flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
- 1 lemon, zested, then quartered into wedges (for serving)
Asparagus:
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 bunch asparagus (about 1 lb.), lower stems removed and trimmed
Method
For the gremolata:
- Place the Wonderful Pistachios, garlic, and parsley in the bowl of a small food processor and pulse until roughly chopped. Set aside.
For the asparagus:
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat or set a grill pan over medium-high heat. Clean and lightly oil the grates of the grill or lightly coat the grill pan with oil.
- Toss the asparagus with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place asparagus on the grill and cook, turning twice during cooking time, until tender, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer asparagus to a serving plate and garnish with gremolata and lemon wedges. Squeeze lemon over asparagus just before enjoying.
Quick tip
Advance preparation: You can prepare the gremolata an hour or two before you cook the asparagus.
