Preparation

Step 1

Directions

Cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove from skillet with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain; remove all but 1 teaspoon bacon fat from skillet.

Add asparagus and shallot to skillet; cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until shallots are golden and asparagus are crisp-tender, about 7 minutes.

Return bacon to skillet; toss over medium-high heat to warm through. Remove from heat; stir in vinegar. Yields about 2/3 cup per serving.
