The post Sauteed Asparagus appeared first on Budget Bytes.
Making an impressive main dish is hard work, so we’re partial to simple sides that pack a punch with little effort. This sauteed asparagus is crunchy, flavorful, and delightfully easy to make. All you need is a bunch of asparagus, oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. It’s almost too easy!
Ingredients for Sauteed Asparagus
Here’s what you’ll need to make sauteed asparagus (psst: there are only 6 ingredients!):
- Asparagus: Choose stalks that are firm to the touch and do not appear limp or wilted. The tips should be closed tightly.
- Oil: Coats the asparagus to help it brown in the pan without burning. We like olive oil for the rich taste it imparts, but canola or vegetable will also work well.
- Garlic: Adds a subtle earthy and savory flavor.
- Salt and Pepper: Enhance the natural flavor of the asparagus.
- Lemon: Adds a pop of brightness and freshness to the cooked asparagus.

Tip for Sauteed Asparagus
Asparagus does not need to be cooked for long. Once it turns bright green from end to end, it’s done! In fact, it’s even better a little underdone. It should not be mushy or floppy in texture and appearance, it should hold its “spear” shape when cooked correctly.
