Serving Tip
Simple, elegant, and full of texture. Tender grilled asparagus gets a flavor boost from a warm, crunchy topping that adds just the right amount of excitement. Serve this dish immediately after grilling to maintain the perfect contrast between soft and crispy.
Storage Tip
You can prepare the topping in advance and store it in an airtight container; the asparagus is best grilled just before serving.
