Tin Foil Asparagus

-

This Easy Tin Foil Asparagus is one of our favorite side dishes because it's simple, flavorful, and practically foolproof.

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch asparagus
  • Garlic salt, to taste
  • Ground black pepper, to taste
  • Onion powder, to taste
  • Olive oil spray
  • (Optional) juice from 1/2 a lemon and/or parmesan cheese

Equipment

  • Charcoal grill like a Weber Jumbo Joe, Weber Go-Anywhere Grill, or Kamado-style grill
  • Aluminum foil

Directions

  1. Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F.

  2. Snap or trim the woody ends off the asparagus and discard them.

  3. Place the asparagus on a large sheet of aluminum foil and lightly spray with olive oil.

  4. Season evenly with garlic salt, onion powder, and ground black pepper. 

  5. Fold the foil over the asparagus and seal the edges to create a packet.

  6. Place the foil packet on the grill (or in the oven) and cook for approximately 12-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the asparagus. Thicker spears may need a few extra minutes.

  7. Carefully open the foil packet, as steam will escape, and serve immediately.

Tips & Information

  • Thin asparagus cooks quickly and may only need 10-12 minutes.
  • For extra flavor, finish with a little grated Parmesan cheese or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
  • Wrapping the asparagus in foil keeps it tender while preventing it from falling through the grill grates.
  • This recipe can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until you're ready to grill.

Serving Suggestions: This asparagus pairs perfectly with Grilled London Broil, Chimichurri, Easy Mashed Potatoes, grilled chicken, salmon, or steak dinners.

Tramontina Signature Tri-Ply Stainless Steel Cookware Review: My Honest Thoughts After Months of Cooking

Blackened Shrimp Gochujang Noodles 🛒Check for Today's Price on Amazon Why I Bought It One of the biggest reasons I chose the Tramontina Signature Tri-Ply Stainless Steel Cookware Set is that it doesn't use a traditional nonstick coating. The cooking surface is simply stainless steel, so there's no coating to scratch, chip, or wear away over time. I wanted a quality stainless steel cookware set without paying All-Clad prices. Since I was starting a food blog and spending much more time in the kitchen, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to upgrade our cookware. Our previous "nonstick" cookware had reached the point where it wasn't nonstick at all. Scrambled eggs were especially frustrating, often sticking to the pan and making cleanup a chore.

A lot of ginger beers are too sweet. Fever Tree is a great less sweet option and Aldi's Summit Ginger Beer is an affordable option that's not too sweet and has a nice, botanical, spicy, herbal kick. Servings: 1 (easily multiplied) Ingredients 1.5 oz vodka 0.5 oz bottled lime juice 3 oz Fever Tree ginger beer or Aldi's Summit ginger beer(or 1.5 oz of both) Fresh mint sprig (optional garnish) Equipment Copper mugs  (or a regular glass works great) 2 oz jigger Instructions Fill your copper mug or glass with crushed ice. Add the vodka, then the lime juice, and top with ginger beer. Stir gently to combine. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig. Enjoy! Tips for the Best Moscow Mule I love fresh juice when cooking but I honestly prefer bottled for this cocktail. Crushed ice is key for that signature chill and dilution. Ginger beer (not ginger ale) gives the proper spicy bite. For extra aroma, slap the mint sprig between your hands before garnishing. Make it a p...
