Steaming asparagus in the microwave is the best way to cook asparagus to enjoy its flavor. It comes out absolutely perfect. For the wine, we recommend Pinot Grigio.

  • 0.25 cups white wine
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place asparagus in a microwave-safe dish. Pour in wine and dot with butter.

  2. 2

    Cover loosely and cook in the microwave on high until bright green and tender, about 3 minutes. Allow to stand for 5 minutes before serving.
