- Using a medium sized pot, boil enough water to cover the asparagus. Once the water boils, turn off the heat.
- Blanch the asparagus by placing it in the pot and submerging it for 1 minute. Remove it and dip it into a bowl of cold water. Ice water can also be used. Set it aside.
- Using a dish towel or paper towel, dry the asparagus off. Add some olive oil in a medium sized preheated pan. Place the asparagus in and stir continuously for 1 or 2 minutes.
- Add the garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper. Cook and stir continuously for another minute or two. Remember not to overcook the asparagus; otherwise, it will become soggy. Turn off the heat and serve.
- Serve with your favorite main course. Enjoy!
