Ingredients: Metric Units
1 lb. fresh-trimmed asparagus
2 Tbsp. butter or margarine
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Place asparagus on a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Dot with butter.

Bring edges of foil together and seal tightly; place foil packet on a baking sheet.

Bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes or until asparagus is crisp-tender. Carefully open foil to allow steam to escape. (Seriously - be careful. Steam burns are no picnic!) Season with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
