Asparagus and Tomato Sauté with Balsamic and Feta

Asparagus and Tomato Sauté with Balsamic and Feta

We eat a lot of asparagus around here this time of year. I decided to do a quick sauté with the asparagus spears and grape tomato halves until crisp-tender. I drizzled the top with a really good balsamic vinegar and feta cheese crumbles. It was delicious, healthy, and it paired nicely with the Spicy Roasted Chicken Drumsticks and the Basmati Rice with Garlic, Pine Nuts, and Fresh Parsley.

How to Make Asparagus and Tomato Sauté with Balsamic and Feta

Heat a large sauté pan with olive oil. Add the asparagus spears then cook, stirring occasionally for 4-5 minutes (longer if the asparagus is really thick – shorter if they are really thin), until crisp-tender.

Add the grape tomato halves and cook for 2 minutes. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Place the asparagus and tomatoes on a serving plate then drizzle with good balsamic vinegar, to taste, then top with feta cheese crumbles, to taste. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

  1. Still waiting for our asparagus to pop up out of the ground. We have had so much rain tho’ maybe it has rotted!! This looks perfect. Have a good day Diane

  2. I just ordered 6 pounds of asparagus and a case of grape tomatoes from my restaurant supply house. I might just have to try this! How would it be without the cheese, given our newfound limitations on cholesterol?

  3. This looks so delicious, and I just happen to have a bundle of asparagus in my fridge! I can’t wait to make this tonight!

  4. Your pictures of asparagus has made me long for it. Fortunately asparagus season isn’t too far away. That dish looks so colourful as well as tasty.

  5. Asparagus season hasn’t hit yet, but I am SO excited! Especially for recipes like this. Love the mediterranean flavors going on.
