Ingredients:

1 pound (1 bunch) fresh asparagus, bottoms trimmed if necessary
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp water
1 clove garlic, peeled and cut in half
1 lemon, juiced
salt and pepper to taste
shaved parmesan cheese (optional)

In a large sauté pan with a lid, on high heat, add the asparagus, olive oil, water, and garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes uncovered, or until the water has almost evaporated. Toss the asparagus with tongs, cover the pan and cook for 1 minute. Remove the lid and toss the asparagus again. Put the lid back on and repeat until the asparagus are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. The asparagus may brown slightly in spots, which adds to the pan-roasted flavor. Add the lemon juice and toss to combine. Remove the garlic, and taste for salt and pepper. Serve hot. This is delicious garnished with shaved Parmesan cheese.
