Roasted Asparagus with Balsamic Browned Butter
By kaydeis
Finish the asparagus just before serving dinner. Cooking the butter until it browns slightly gives the dish a nutty flavor; watch carefully, though, since it can burn easily.
Ingredients
- 40 asparagus spears, trimmed (about 2 pounds)
- Cooking spray
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- 2 Tbs butter
- 2 tsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
