Preparation

  • Make the salsa verde:In a bowl, combine the olive oil, parsley, shallot, anchovies, lemon juice, capers, and lemon zest. Stir to blend and then season to taste with 1/8 tsp. salt, or more to taste.
  • Cook the asparagus:Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the asparagus and cook until just tender, about 4 minutes for medium spears. Lift the asparagus out of the boiling water with tongs and pat dry on a clean dishtowel. Transfer to a platter, arranging the spears with the tips pointing in the same direction. Spoon the sauce over the warm spears and serve immediately.
