Ingredients
  

  • 1 bunch asparagus as fresh as possible
  • 1/2 t olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Wash asparagus and trim the woody ends.
  • Heat a contact grill - medium heat, if you can adjust it.
  • Drizzle the oil over the asparagus and toss to lightly coat all the vegetable with a very thin coating of oil.
  • Place on the grill (you will probably need to do more than one batch.) Lower the cover, and cook around five minutes - check for tenderness after 3-4. You may need longer with larger or older spears.
