Grilled Scallions and Asparagus

Category: Recipes

Grilled Scallions and Asparagus

3/4 to 1 pound pencil-slim asparagus, trimmed of tough stems
3 bunches scallions, trimmed of root ends and green tops cut to about 4 inches long
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
generous pinch of sugar
salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar or fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted

Up to 3 hours before serving, gently combine the asparagus and scallions with the olive oil, sugar and salt and pepper to taste.

Grill the scallions in one or two batches on an outdoor grill, or in a griddled skillet, on a griddle or in a saute pan over medium-high heat, until browned on all sides and tender-crisp, about
3 minutes. Remove to a platter.

Repeat the process with the asparagus; it takes 4 to 5 minutes.

Arrange the two vegetables on a serving platter, sprinkling with the balsamic vinegar or lemon juice, onion and pine nuts. Serve at room temperature.
Serves 4.
