Grilled Asparagus

This is my favorite way to prepare asparagus.
When we first moved back from Poland in January of 2010, we were living with our friends, Joel and Sue. Yep, our whole family of five...in their basement...for five months.

Sidenote: We are still the best of friends and cherish the memories we made during that time. We still thank them regularly for giving us a place to live while we saved money and searched for the perfect house for our family...exactly only 1 mile from their house... actually we like to say "point nine eight miles" because it sounds more exact and it's a tiny bit closer.
[ANYHOO] That year, spring came early and we enjoyed many evenings grilling out and eating out on the deck even before we moved out on May 24th. It was then that Sue taught me this yummy way to prepare asparagus. Now I always make it this way.

Ingredients and Directions:

• big bunch of asparagus
• olive oil
• salt
• pepper
• dry minced onions
• sesame seeds

wash asparagus and snap the ends off. place in a single layer on a jellyroll pan (the pan is just for the prep and transporting to the grill) drizzle with olive oil and roll asparagus to coat evenly. sprinkle with salt and pepper (I like to use fresh ground sea salt and fresh ground pepper) sprinkle with dry minced onions and sesame seeds. place asparagus spears directly on the preheated grill for 6-8 minutes depending on the thickness of the asparagus. serve immediately.
