Ways to serve steamed asparagus
You can eat this steamed asparagus simply seasoned with lemon juice and zest, but there are many more serving ideas. Here are a few other options: What we love about this recipe: It’s quick, simple, and healthy! The spears come out bright green and crisp tender: perfect with a zing of lemon and a hint of grated Parmesan.
Top with grated Parmesan cheese or Pecorino Romano for a punch of flavor. Add slivered toasted almonds for a crunch, or feta crumbles for a Mediterranean flair. Top it with a creamy sauce like lemon dill sauce. We love adding it to a power bowl with rice, quinoa, or farro, or topping it with tahini sauce. Serve with sauteed shrimp, baked salmon, or baked chicken breast for a quick and easy meal.
