Asparagus With Meyer Lemon Breadcrumbs Food

ASPARAGUS WITH BREADCRUMBS AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a food processor, process bread until coarse crumbs form. Transfer breadcrumbs to a small bowl. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Add Parmesan, season with salt and pepper, and stir with a fork to combine.
• Arrange asparagus in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Top with breadcrumb mixture and bake until breadcrumbs are golden brown and asparagus is tender, 20 minutes. Squeeze lemon juice over asparagus just before serving.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH LEMONY BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Arrange asparagus on a rimmed baking sheet, and drizzle with oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Roast until tender, 18 to 20 minutes, then transfer to a platter.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add panko, and cook, stirring frequently, until deep golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in lemon juice and zest. Season with salt.
• Top asparagus with breadcrumbs, and garnish with lemon.

ASPARAGUS WITH MEYER LEMON BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup panko and 1 teaspoon chopped thyme and cook, stirring, until browned, 3 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 3 tablespoons grated pecorino, 2 tablespoons chopped chives and 2 teaspoons Meyer lemon zest; season with salt and pepper and set aside. Cook 2 pounds trimmed asparagus in salted boiling water until crisp-tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain and toss with 2 tablespoons butter and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Transfer to a platter and top with the panko mixture.

WOOD ROASTED SHAVED ASPARAGUS, PARMESAN, BREADCRUMBS AND LEMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Trim the woody ends from the asparagus. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the asparagus lengthwise into strips (if using Brussel sprouts, use a knife or mandoline to shave the sprouts).
• In a large bowl, gently toss the shaved asparagus with 2 tablespoons olive oil and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Pour the asparagus mixture into a 12-inch cast-iron skillet and loosely arrange a "nest." Roast until slightly browned and softened, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the cubed bread and toss to coat in the olive oil. Allow the bread to toast evenly, tossing often, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the garlic to perfume the oil and bread. Remove the bread from the pan to a cutting board and roughly chop the bread pieces. Toss with the grated Parmesan and black pepper, to taste.
• Top the asparagus with the breadcrumbs. Garnish with more grated Parmesan.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH LEMON HERB BREAD CRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place the bread into a food processor along with the garlic, salt, thyme, rosemary, lemon zest, and olive oil. Pulse until roughly chopped into bread crumbs. I doubt store bought bread crumbs would work here. They are usually way too fine. Scatter the crumbs onto a shallow tray and bake in the oven until golden brown, which should only take a couple minutes or so. Next, put the lemon juice in a small saucepan over a medium heat and whisk in the butter. Remove from the heat once the butter is melted. Meanwhile, trim the woody ends of the asparagus. Drizzle with a tablespoon of olive oil and toss to coat. Season lightly with salt and a little pepper. Place on a grill pan over high heat and cook for a couple minutes, until the asparagus gets grill marks on them. Using tongs, flip the asparagus and cook the other side. If you don't have a grill pan, then go out and get one. You seriously NEED one. If for some reason you do not heed my advise, the asparagus can be steamed or boiled or roasted or micromwaved or however you prefer to cook them. To serve, place the asparagus on a platter, sprinkle with the breadcrumbs and the Parmesan and then drizzle with the warm lemon butter sauce and serve immediately.

ASPARAGUS WITH LEMON BUTTER CRUMBS

Steps:

• Wash the asparagus in cold water, then take each stalk in both hands and bend and snap off the woody end.
• Arrange the asparagus stalks in a steamer and steam over simmering water for 5-6 minutes, or until they feel tender when tested with a skewer, being careful not to overcook them.
• While the asparagus is cooking, heat 1 oz (25 g) of the butter in a frying pan, as soon as it is frothy, stir in the breadcrumbs, and garlic if using, and cook them, stirring constantly, until they're evenly browned and crispy.
• Then tip the crumbs on to a plate, stir in the lemon zest and season with salt and pepper.
• Now put the pan back on to the heat and add the remaining butter.
• As soon as it is frothy, add the cooked asparagus and toss to coat them in the butter.
• Sprinkle with the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the asparagus between warmed serving plates and sprinkle with the crumbs, serve immediately.

RAW & COOKED ASPARAGUS WITH LEMON & PARMESAN BUTTER

Steps:

• Trim about two thirds of the asparagus to get rid of any woody ends, then set aside. Peel the remaining into ribbons using a vegetable peeler and tip into a bowl.
• Gently heat the butter, lemon zest and juice and lots of black pepper in a small saucepan. Stir in half the parmesan and keep warm.
• Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the trimmed asparagus for about 2 mins until just cooked. Drain and tip into the bowl with the asparagus ribbons. Toss everything with the buttery sauce and the remaining parmesan. Season to taste, then serve.

• Place lasagna noodles on a flat work surface. Spread 1 spoonful of mascarpone mixture down the middle of each noodle. Cover mascarpone mixture with salmon slices. Arrange 4 spears of asparagus perpendicularly over salmon. Gather up sides of the noodles to form bundles around the asparagus; tie up with chives. Transfer bundles to the prepared baking dish.
