This is a great alternative to steaming your asparagus. If you don't have a grill, you can roast them in the oven at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes, turning once. You could also just drizzle them with olive oil, salt and pepper and skip the marinade.GRILLED ASPARAGUS

i would eat asparagus every day if i could. we eat it at least 2 times a week... no grill, so we roast it in the oven, and we LOVE it! we'll need to try the marinade, we usually just do olive oil, salt, and pepper! thanks!
Can't wait to try this!! Like Cori, we usually just do oil, salt and pepper. I'm excited for a new idea to try!
