Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh asparagus, tough stem ends trimmed
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

Blanch or steam asparagus until al dente and still green. Refresh in cool water and set aside. (You may do this a day ahead.)

In a large sauté pan, heat oil over medium-low heat and add garlic. Stir for 1 minute. Add asparagus, mango slices, capers, thyme leaves and lemon juice; stir to heat through. Season with a salt and pepper.
