Ingredients

  • 7 jumbo asparagus or a few more if not jumbo, trimmed and peeled
  • 6 large hearts of palm spears cut in half lengthwise
  • 2 teaspoons neutral oil such as expeller pressed safflower
  • 3 pinches salt & freshly cracked pepper
  • 4 tablespoons Chimichurri sauce see my recipe

Instructions

  • Make the Chimichurri.
    Add asparagus to a plate to hold - add one teaspoon of oil and the seasonings.
    Heat grill to meadium- high and grill the asparagus until nice grill marks form; turn over. Close grill and cook on the second side until just cooked through but tender-crisp.
  • Add cooked asparagus to the plate, cool
    Cut hearts of palm in half lenthwise - cut asparagus the same lengh.
  • On a platter arrange in a "quilted pattern" (see photo) and top with a few tablespoons of Chimichurri.
    Best to add Chimichurri when asparagus is still a bit warm to grab the flavors.
    Enjoy!
