Recipe: Garlic Butter Asparagus

I am not a fan of asparagus, I've tried. Really. I think it's such an elegant, fancy dish... but I just am not a fan of the veggie. I even tried to make it "better" by sauteing it with garlic, thinking that would help me. I wasn't overly impressed, but my family scarfed it down, so I figured I should probably put it down "on paper" before I forget how I did it.

Garlic Butter Asparagus

Ingredients
1 bunch of Asparagus (14-18 spears)
3 tablespoons of butter
3 generous tablespoons of minced garlic

Instructions:
Rinse asparagus and cut spears down to fit the size of saute pan. In large saute pan combine butter and garlic over medium high heat, cook until garlic begins to brown. Add asparagus spears to the pan, making sure not to stack them on one another. cover pan with lid and let cool on medium-low heat until the spears are tender (about 10 minutes). You may have to batch the spears into two groups, do not take out the garlic, just add more butter (1-2 more tablespoons) and saute the second batch of spears. Plate the asparagus and use the garlic butter from the pan as a sauce over the asparagus before serving.
