Local Asparagus and Goat Cheese.
- 2 pounds medium asparagus, tough ends trimmed
- 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 3 1/2- to 4-ounce log soft fresh goat cheese, crumbled
- juice of one lemon
- grated lemon peel from one lemon
- 2 T pine nuts
- 1 red pepper, roasted, peeled and sliced into 1/2 inch strips
Toast pine nuts in 350 degree oven for about 5 minutes, watching vigilantly as they burn quickly. Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 500°F. Arrange asparagus on large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil and turn asparagus to coat well. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast asparagus until crisp-tender when pierced with knife, about 7 minutes. Arrange asparagus on platter. Sprinkle with goat cheese and red pepper strips. Drizzle with lemon juice and remaining 2 teaspoons oil. Sprinkle pine nuts and grated lemon peel over. (Can be prepared 1 hour ahead. Cover with plastic wrap. Let stand at room temperature.)
