Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Garlic Parmesan Asparagus with Grape Tomatoes.
Step 1
Begin by placing trimmed asparagus in a 10-inch skillet and adding just enough water to cover the bottom.
Step 2
Cover the skillet and set the heat to medium, allowing the asparagus to steam until it reaches a tender perfection, which should take around 10 minutes.
Step 3
Once done, carefully drain any excess water.
Step 4
Next, return the asparagus to the skillet and lower the heat to a gentle simmer.
Step 5
Drizzle a generous amount of olive oil over the vibrant green spears and sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan cheese, letting the flavors meld beautifully.
Step 6
Toss in halved grape tomatoes, then cover the skillet once more.
Step 7
Allow it to sit for about 2 minutes, just long enough for the cheese to melt and the tomatoes to soften, creating a delightful medley of taste and texture.
Step 8
Enjoy this simple yet elegant dish that brings the freshness of the garden to your table.
