Keto Grilled Sesame Asparagus Recipe

Keto Grilled Sesame Asparagus Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 pound (455 grams) asparagus
• 2 tablespoons (30 ml) soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons (30 ml) rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon (15 ml) toasted sesame oil
• 1 jalapeno, finely minced
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Method

1. Have your charcoal or gas grill ready; the prep on this recipe doesn’t take much time
2. Snap the bottom off of each stalk of asparagus where it breaks naturally
3. Mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and minced jalapeno in a bowl
4. Now wash your hands! You must always wash your hands after handling hot peppers, or the next time you touch your eyes, nose, or mouth, you’ll be sorry
5. Put the sesame seeds in a small, dry skillet, and shake them over medium high heat until they start to make little popping sounds
6. Remove the pan from the heat
7. Put the asparagus on the grill, over a medium fire-its a good idea to have a small-holed grill for this
8. Baste the asparagus with the soy sauce mixture as it grills and turn the asparagus a few times
9. Grill until the asparagus has brown spots and then remove to serving plates
10. Drizzle with the remaining soy sauce mixture, garnish with the toasted sesame seeds, and serve
