Pan Seared Asparagus with Italian Seasoning, Balsamic, and Olive Oil
This Italian-influenced asparagus side is delicious. They are sweetened with balsamic and scented with garlic and Italian seasonings. Finally, a little drizzle of olive oil finishes the dish. Best of all, it comes together quickly and easily! A little bit of lemon zest would be a nice addition.
