Grilled asparagus is a favorite in my kitchen. This is a quick recipe that is delicious and easy to make. This goes well with pork tenderloin or farro salad.

The heat should be high. If necessary, reduce the heat. Because indoor stovetop grill pans don't get as hot as outdoor grills, you may need to cook the asparagus for five to six minutes on each side.
