Asparagus Amandine
June 17, 2016
Amandine (pronounced "ah-mahn-DEEN") refers to a dish that is served garnished with sliced or slivered almonds. Trout, green beans & asparagus are frequently prepared in the amandine style. This recipe is so delish & is a great pairing with many foods such as fish, chicken & steak. It's very easy to make & cleanup is minimal!
Serves: 2 to 4

2 In a large skillet; bring broth to a boil on high heat. Add asparagus, reduce heat to low, cover & simmer 6 to 7 minutes till crisp-tender. Drain & set aside.

5 Immediately add individual servings to plates & top each with some almonds & butter from the skillet. Season with a little salt & serve with a lemon wedge on the side.
