This garlicy, lemony grilled asparagus is the perfect foil packet side to make on your next camping trip.
Ingredients
1
lb
asparagus
2
tablespoons
olive oil
1
teaspoon
sea salt
1
teaspoon
garlic powder
½
lemon
zested
2
tablespoons
grated parmesan cheese
optional
Instructions
Start your campfire so you have embers to cook with, or preheat a grill to 400F.
Trim the tough ends off the asparagus--this could be ½" to 2" depending on the size.
Roll out a large sheet of foil, followed by a slightly smaller piece of parchment paper (optional).
Place the asparagus on top of the foil & parchment. Make sure the asparagus is only stacked 2 stalks high to promote even cooking.
Drizzle with the oil, then sprinkle on the salt and garlic powder. Use your hands or a silicone brush to make sure the asparagus is evenly coated.
Cover with another sheet of parchment & foil and crimp the sides to create a sealed packet.
Place the packet on the grill and cook 6-8 minutes on each side until the asparagus is tender but still has a bit of crunch.
Remove from the grill and carefully open the packet (there will be lots of hot steam!). Finish with some lemon zest and grated parmesan & serve.
