Asparagus with Hollandaise Sauce

(0 Votes)

Asparagus is a classic go-along! Our easy recipe for asparagus with traditional hollandaise sauce will make all your entertaining memorable.

Place asparagus in a microwave-safe 7- x 11-inch baking dish, with tips toward center of dish. Add water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cover and cook at 90% power for 5 minutes; remove dish from microwave and set aside.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, heat butter at 90% power for 40 seconds, or until melted.
Meanwhile, in another small microwave-safe bowl, beat egg yolks, lemon juice, and remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt until thick. Slowly pour in melted butter, whisking until well combined. Microwave uncovered at 40% power for 30 seconds, stirring halfway through cooking time.
Uncover asparagus and drain; drizzle with Hollandaise sauce and serve immediately.

To make this dish even more colorful, we like to use both green and white asparagus. Talk about an elegant conversation starter!
