Roasted Lemon Honey Garlic Asparagus

asparagus

olive oil

lemon

Tablespoons honey

garlic

salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Break off the ends of asparagus.  In a large bowl add the asparagus.

In a small bowl whisk olive oil, lemon, honey, garlic. Pour over the asparagus and toss to coat.

Lay in a single layer on a baking sheet.  Salt and pepper to taste.  Roast for about 10 minutes, more or less depending on your size of asparagus.

Fermenting vegetables is one of the easiest ways to preserve the seasonal harvest. Fermented asparagus with garlic is one of my favorite fermented vegetables! Serve it as an appetizer with cheese and meats, or as a snack or side dish with dinner.

Fermented Asparagus with Garlic

asparagus spears

Tbsp kosher salt

filtered water

Trim the woody ends off the asparagus so that they fit into a quart sized mason jar.

Fill the jar with the asparagus, then push the garlic cloves into the jar.

Mix the water and salt to make a brine, and pour over the asparagus, making sure to cover all of the veggies. You may need to make a little more brine at a ratio of 3/4 Tbsp salt to 1 cup water in order to fill the jar.

Weigh the asparagus down with some kind of weight so that they stay under the brine.

Cover the jar with a clean towel and secure with a rubber band (you can alternatively use an airlock system if you have one, but it&#039;s not necessary).

Set in a cool and dark place for 1-2 weeks to ferment. Taste the veggies, and when they are to your liking they are done!

Cover with a lid and store in the refrigerator.

salt and black pepper (to taste)

lime juice (1 lime)

honey

sesame oil

cilantro

salt

black pepper

chili powder (leave out if sensitive to spice)

cumin

smoked paprika

broccoli florets

asparagus,

yellow bell pepper chunks

Side of your choice: rice (pasta, quinoa, farro, potatoes etc.)

4-5 lunch containers

Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Spray a large sturdy baking sheet with cooking spray or for easier clean-up, line with parchment paper or heavy-duty foil.

Place the chicken thighs on the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, lime juice, honey, sesame oil, and cilantro together. Drizzle 1/3 of the sauce over the chicken.

Bake for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the seasonings in a small bowl and set aside.

After 20 minutes, remove baking pan from the oven, flip the chicken and place the asparagus, broccoli and bell peppers a long the sides of the chicken. Sprinkle the chicken and vegetables with seasonings and drizzle sauce over the vegetables and some more on the chicken (reserve 1 teaspoon for the end).

Return the oven back to the pan and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or once the chicken is cooked through and has reached an internal temperature of 165ºF. (You may want to remove the vegetables first (so they don't overcook) if the chicken is not cooked through yet, depending on your level of preference.)

Drizzle the chicken with additional sauce and turn the oven to broil for 1-2 minutes, until the chicken has a nice brown color (watch closely so the chicken does not burn).

Sprinkle with chopped cilantro or parsley, if desired and serve hot.

For meal prepping: Make the rice, potatoes, quinoa or pasta while the chicken is cooking. Divide evenly into lunch containers and store in the fridge for up for up five days.

I was nervous about the mixture of honey &amp; mustard, but it was SO good!

Made this recipe and the whole fam loved it!!

Hola excelente receta, me gustaría más recetas así de prácticas y saludables, además gurmet, 
Si a mi familia les gusto mucho ya que es difícil que las coman por que no les gustan los vegetales. 
Gracias. Por favor.

I love asparagus in almost any form but this knocked my socks off! Thank you thank you! So simple yet delicious. I paired it with fettuccine Alfredo and a nice Polish sausage. Fantastic.

I am on a low/no sodium diet  so will have to find low sodium cheese. I love asparagus.

Delish!  We always have asparagus with our fish.  Thank you for the recipe.  I tried my lemon pepper with minced garlic.  I loved it &amp; so did hubby.  Much better than the usual steamed.

Loved your comments on internet survey of baking temperatures and timing.  Some also cover with aluminum foil then uncover to melt the parmesan.
