Ingredients

3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons green peppercorns in brine, drained
1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed
2 tablespoons canola oil

Directions

Whisk together the vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper in a small bowl until combined. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified and stir in the peppercorns. Let the vinaigrette sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving. Vinaigrette can be made up to 8 hours in advance and refrigerated.

Heat the grill to high.

Toss asparagus with the canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Place grilled asparagus on a platter and drizzle the vinaigrette over the top.

A touch of parmesan Reggiano livens it up
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Excellent and so easy. We didn't have any green peppercorns, so I grated a touch of parmesan Reggiano on the asparagus after... adding the vinaigrette. It was delicious. My wife said "this is a Christmas recipe that we can do last since it's so quick." The first thing that came to my mind instead of the peppercorns wereI capers also.Read more

Great with or without the peppercorns!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is a regular at our house now. We found the green peppercors at a local italian grocery, but not in our mainstream... grocery store. We have made this with the green peppercorns, capers and without either and love it all three ways. When using the green peppercorns, we do back off of the recipe just a little bit as they can be a little overbearing on the other fantastic flavors. Another great sauce from Bobby!Read more

My guests really enjoyed it
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Really an easy recipe to execute. I've always enjoyed my asparagus grilled with olive oil and kosher salt and pepper, but... this was a nice change of pace. However, in the future we will not use the green peppercorn, but rather capers.Read more

A Keeper
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was a definite keeper! Only change I made was roasting the asparagus instead of grilling. I made this for my best... friend's son who was graduating from high school along with fabulous filet mignons. Everyone said it was a great decision since we had decided not to go to one of the nations best steak houses. Next time I will try it with capers instead of green peppercorns since I always have capers on hand.Read more
