Pan-Fried Asparagus

Yes I am a foodie (quite surprising, a lot of people find that surprising). 😎

Anyways, this is what I intend to cook tonight among other things. I cannot claim credit for this, I found it online some time back and now its stored on my Wiki at home and I don’t know who to give credit for it anymore.

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon coarse salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pound fresh asparagus spears, trimmed

Method:

1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Stir in the olive oil, salt, and pepper.
3. Cook garlic in butter for a minute, but do not brown.
4. Add asparagus, and cook for 10 minutes, turning asparagus to ensure even cooking.
