    Preparation Steps

    1

    Wash and trim the asparagus, then snap off the tough ends.

    2

    In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, grated garlic, salt, and pepper.

    3

    Toss the asparagus in the seasoned oil mixture, ensuring each spear is evenly coated.

    4

    Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat, then place the asparagus on the grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until slightly charred but still crisp-tender.

    5

    When serving, sprinkle with freshly toasted almonds, if using, and a squeeze of extra lemon juice for a more intense flavor.
