-
Directions:
In a large fry pan, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter on medium heat. Was your asparagus and snap near the end until it breaks off itself, or line them up and with a knife, cut about 2-3 inches off to get rid of the tough ends. Lay your asparagus in the fry pan over the melted butter and sprinkle with salt & pepper. Let saute for 10-12 minutes, or until just tender. Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a smaller pan and once it's melted, add your cream, then your Parmesan, then squeeze in your lemon, and season to taste with salt & pepper, making sure to whisk to evenly incorporate everything. Drizzle lemon sauce over asparagus.
