Asparagus with Lemon Dill Butter

Recipe courtesy of Heida73


  • 1lb fresh asparagus
  • 1/3 C. low-fat margarine
  • 2t. lemon juice
  • 1t. fresh dill, finely minced
  • 1/4t. salt
  • 1/4t. pepper
  • nonfat cooking spray



Clean the asparagus and cut off the woody end pieces, if necessary, to fit inside the grill.  Pat dry. In a small serving bowl, combine the margarine, lemon juice and dill.  Lightly coat the grill with cooking spray and preheat for 5 minutes.  Place asparagus side-by-side in the grill lengthwise (vertically) and lightly salt and pepper.  Cook for 3-4 minutes or until tender-crisp.  Place on a warmed serving platter.  To serve, place a tablespoon of the lemon butter on each serving. (I brushed lemon butter on the asparagus as it was cooking and then put the dripping on top of the finished asparagus)
