Yield: 6–8 servings

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
1 1/2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
2/3 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 1/2 pounds asparagus, tough ends trimmed
2/3 cup Japanese bread crumbs (panko)
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons white truffle oil, divided
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper

1. Preheat oven to 350. In a large skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add shallot, and cook until translucent. Sprinkle flour into pan. Cook, stirring constantly, until flour begins to slightly brown. Add cream and chicken broth. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens. Add salt and nutmeg, stirring to combine.
