Asparagus steams beautifully in the microwave! The stalks become tender very quickly with just the right amount of crisp. Note: Thicker stalks will need a bit more time to cook than thinner ones. Microwave for an additional 30 seconds to achieve the desired texture.
Note: This recipe was created for a 1000-watt microwave. Head to cookanyday.com to find the original recipe and adjust cooking times for other microwave wattages.
