Grilled Asparagus is a simple side dish that tastes delicious. Grilling asparagus gives it amazing flavor and it couldn’t be easier.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
Grilling your veggies is so easy and I think they taste better when grilled on the BBQ grill or the Traeger. I love the slightly smoky flavor cooking asparagus on the grill gets and if you put it directly on the grill it will get nice char marks too. So easy and simple.
Ingredients
It only takes a few simple ingredients to make the perfect grilled asparagus. You can use my suggestions or season it with your favorite seasoning combinations.
- Asparagus, medium thickness
- Olive Oil
- Garlic Salt
- Parmesan Cheese, grated
How to Grill Asparagus
Start with a thicker asparagus for grilling. It holds up better and if you don’t want to put the asparagus in a metal pan you can lay it right on the grill and it won’t fall through.
- Place the olive oil and seasoning into a plastic zippered bag and then add the asparagus and toss it to coat. You want a nice light coat over all of the asparagus.
- Place asparagus in a disposable pan or directly on the grill. Shake the pan or turn once during cooking.
- Grill for about 10 minutes, until desired doneness. (I like to shake the pan a few times during the cooking process.)
- Use a fork to test the asparagus for tenderness.
- Remove the asparagus from the pan or grill and place on a serving dish. sprinkle with some grated Parmesan cheese and serve.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I Place Asparagus Directly on the Grill?
Yes, you can. Just make sure your asparagus doesn’t fall between the grate! You may want to skewer your asparagus together to help prevent this. Close the cover to the grill and cook on high heat. Turn once during the cooking process.
How Long Does It Take to Cook ?
Your cook time will vary depending on the size of your asparagus but it usually takes about 10 minutes. Use a fork to test the tenderness.
