Roasted Asparagus With Brazil Nuts Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place asparagus in a baking dish and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat a small saute pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and garlic and then lemon juice and pine nuts. Toast until nuts begin to brown slightly. Remove from heat and drizzle over asparagus. Roast in the oven until just cooked. Serve warm or at room temperature with eggs and prosciutto.

Steps:

• Toss 2 pounds trimmed asparagus, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast at 450 degrees F until lightly browned, 15 minutes. Mix 1/3 cup toasted pine nuts, 1/2 cup chopped parsley, the grated zest of 1 lemon, and salt and pepper. Sprinkle over the asparagus.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl toss the asparagus in the olive oil, and liberally season with salt and pepper. Spread the stalks out on a baking sheet, in a single layer, and roast until tender but still firm and moist, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, vigorously whisk together the mustard and lemon juice. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking quickly to emulsify the olive oil into the juice mixture. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Transfer the asparagus to a serving platter, toss with the vinaigrette and serve. The dish may be eaten warm or cold.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Trim the woody ends from the asparagus. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the asparagus lengthwise into strips (if using Brussel sprouts, use a knife or mandoline to shave the sprouts).
• In a large bowl, gently toss the shaved asparagus with 2 tablespoons olive oil and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Pour the asparagus mixture into a 12-inch cast-iron skillet and loosely arrange a "nest." Roast until slightly browned and softened, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the cubed bread and toss to coat in the olive oil. Allow the bread to toast evenly, tossing often, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the garlic to perfume the oil and bread. Remove the bread from the pan to a cutting board and roughly chop the bread pieces. Toss with the grated Parmesan and black pepper, to taste.
• Top the asparagus with the breadcrumbs. Garnish with more grated Parmesan.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the asparagus, prosciutto, Parmesan and pine nuts in a large baking dish or on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper (light on the salt, as prosciutto and Parm are salty). Toss together all the ingredients to evenly incorporate.
• Bake until the prosciutto and cheese are crisp, about 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Toss asparagus with 2 tablespoons olive oil on prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until asparagus is just tender, about 15 minutes. (Can be prepared 3 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add asparagus, nuts, and wine. Toss until asparagus is heated through, about 3 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired. Arrange on platter.

Steps:

• Lightly steam the asparagus for a few minutes, depending on how thick the stalks are then remove to a colander and set aside.
• Heat up the olive oil in a saute pan on medium heat and lightly brown the garlic for 1 minute-just until it starts to give off an aroma.
• Stir in the pine nuts and cook another 2-3 minutes or until the pine nuts are lightly toasted.
• Stir in the asparagus and lavender and heat through 1-2 minutes longer until the asparagus is warmed and the lavender is fragrant.
• Plate the asparagus mixture and garnish with salt, cracked black pepper, the bocconcini quarters, lemon zest and lemon juice.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package directions; drain the pasta and return to the pot.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the pine nuts and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, 1-2 minutes. Add the asparagus and cook, tossing occasionally, until just tender, 2-3 minutes.
• Add the asparagus mixture to the pasta along with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper and toss to combine. Sprinkle with the Parmesan before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Prep asparagus.
• Heat a large oven proof skillet and oil over a medium high heat, add asparagus and toss to coat with oil, add salt.
• Roll asparagus over every 30 seconds for a couple minutes, until hot and fragrant.
• Place pan in hot oven for 10 minutes.
• Prep garlic.
• When pan comes out of oven add garlic and optional meat.
• Stir/toss for a minute or two, garlic should just start to turn light brown.
• Season to taste and serve.

Steps:

• To cook asparagus: Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Break off woody stems of asparagus.
• If stalks are thick, peel with a vegetable peeler, pulling from stem end toward tip.
• (Pencil-thin spears do no need peeling.) Place in a greased or sprayed 9x13 inch glass baking dish.
• Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
• Dot with margarine.
• Cover with foil and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until tender but still crisp.
• (Asparagus may be baked 1 day ahead and reheated in microwave.) To make topping: In a small bowl, whisk together oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
• (Topping may be refrigerated overnight. Bring to room temperature before using.)
• Before serving: Spoon topping over asparagus and sprinkle with walnuts.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Snap any woody tips off the asparagus where they naturally break apart. Put on a roasting tray, drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 12 mins until they are tender.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss shallots with 2 tablespoons oil on baking sheet; spread in single layer. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until tender and golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 35 minutes.
• Stir 2 tablespoons oil and breadcrumbs in skillet over medium heat until crumbs brown, about 4 minutes. (Shallots and crumbs can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover separately; keep at room temperature.)
• Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water 10 minutes. Add asparagus; cook until asparagus is crisp-tender and pasta is tender but still firm to bite, about 4 minutes. Drain pasta and asparagus. Transfer to large bowl. Immediately add blue cheese and shallots. Toss until cheese melts and pasta is well coated. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowls. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
