Asparagus Artichoke And Mushroom Saute With Tarragon Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Steam the asparagus for three to five minutes, depending on how thick the stalks are. It should be tender but still have some bite. Rinse with cold water, and drain for a minute on a kitchen towel. Cut into 1-inch lengths. Place in a salad bowl, and toss with the mushrooms, herbs and arugula.
• Whisk together the lemon juice, salt and pepper, garlic and olive oil. Toss with the asparagus mixture and the slivered Parmesan, and serve.

Steps:

• For the Vegetable Saute: Warm the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and the garlic and cook until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the asparagus and artichokes and cook until the asparagus is tender, about 5 more minutes. Turn off the heat and add the tomatoes, salt and pepper and reserve. For the Tarragon Vinaigrette: Combine the oil, vinegar, tarragon, salt and pepper in a glass screw-top jar. Seal the jar and shake vigorously to mix the vinaigrette. Toss the vegetables with the vinaigrette and serve.

• For the Vegetable Sauté
• Warm the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and garlic and sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the asparagus and artichokes and cook until the asparagus is tender, about 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and add the tomatoes, salt, and pepper; toss with the vinaigrette.
• Transfer to a serving bowl and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Scrape the artichokes, leaving some of the skin on. Parboil, putting the bigger pieces into the water first, then the smaller pieces. Let them boil for two minutes, then drain.
• Slice the artichokes when they are cool enough to handle. In a large frying pan (preferably cast iron) heat the olive oil and saute the artichokes so that they are lightly brown. Add the garlic and cook until it becomes barely golden (do not allow it to burn).
• Sprinkle the artichokes with tarragon and serve.

Steps:

• To prepare asparagus, snap off the fibrous end of each spear and slice each diagonally into 2-inch pieces.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until glistening.
• Add all ingredients to skillet; toss to combine.
• Cover skillet and saute for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until asparagus and mushrooms are tender. (Note: We like our asparagus crisp. If you prefer a more tender texture, cook for an additional 3-5 minutes.).
• Serve immediately.
