Preparation

Step 1

Preheat grill or broiler (medium high heat).
Trim and discard tough ends from the bottom of the asparagus spears.
Lightly coat asparagus spears with oil.
Grill over high heat for approximately five minutes until done (turn often to prevent charring).
Drizzle vinegar over spears and salt and pepper to taste.
Serve hot.

Note:

Choose firm spears, not the wrinkled ones; simply break the ends off the entire stalk where it is easiest —with two hands. Asparagus is easy to overcook so watch cooking time. Cook asparagus by simply grilling or broiling — a great low-calorie way to let the natural flavors peek through.
