ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH PARMESAN CREAM SAUCE



Roasted Asparagus with Parmesan Cream Sauce image

This easy side dish has loads of Parmesan flavor, yet it tastes light enough to not overpower the asparagus. The sauce comes together in minutes while the asparagus roasts in the oven. Quick enough for a busy weeknight meal. Use freshly shredded Parmesan cheese, as the bagged variety doesn't melt well.

Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup low-fat milk
¾ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste
1 pinch lemon zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place asparagus on the baking sheet and season with salt and black pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and lightly toss to coat evenly.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until asparagus is tender-crisp, about 10 minutes for thin asparagus, or 14 minutes for large asparagus.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until softened, taking care not to burn garlic. Sprinkle flour onto butter and cook, whisking constantly until mixture is golden and thick, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in milk and bring to a light boil until sauce starts to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes.

ASPARAGUS SAUCE



Asparagus Sauce image

A simple and really quick recipe for asparagus sauce that can be made when you have asparagus or asparagus tips left over from another dish you are cooking. This sauce is great hot or cold and can be easily frozen. I found it on the English website on which I found my Asparagus and Almond soup recipe, with that recipe. ALL the quantities listed in the ingredients are approximations: it all depends on how much asparagus you are dealing with. So there is one absolutely unlisted ingredient: your culinary discretion! I've added the garlic, but this could easily be omitted. I've posted this for the 2005 Zaar World Tour.

CREAMED ASPARAGUS



Creamed Asparagus image

I made this last Easter instead of creamed spinach to accompany our leg of lamb dinner. It was a major hit, so I'll be making it again this year.

Provided by JoAnn Cambareri

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables     Asparagus

Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound asparagus spears
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
½ cup beef broth
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
¼ cup whipped cream cheese
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
¾ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Rinse asparagus under cool water to remove any grit. Snap off the bottom inch or so using your fingers; the stems will naturally break where the tough woody part ends and the tender stem begins. Remove the ends. Dry the spears by rolling them between two kitchen towels. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add asparagus, beef broth, and garlic powder. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until asparagus is crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add sliced mushrooms and cook until tender, 3 to 5 minutes more. Reduce heat to low; add cream cheese, yogurt, nutmeg, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cheese is melted and creamy, about 3 minutes.
