Warm Asparagus & Parmesan Salad
INGREDIENTS
- 2 lbs. Asparagus, peeled and cut into 1" pieces
- 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
- 3 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
- Fresh pepper
- 4 oz. Parmesan cheese, in 1 piece
- 4 cups mixed greens
Add asparagus to a large pot of boiling, salted water. Cook 3-5 minutes, till barely crisp-tender. Drain briefly under cold water. Spears should still be warm.
Toss asparagus with lemon juice, olive oil, and pepper to taste. With a vegetable peeler, shave thin slices of Parmesan on top. Make a bed of greens on a serving plate and mound the asparagus on top. Serve at once.
