Asparagus and Red Pepper with Balsamic Vinegar

By: Patrick

"A bright and flavorful vegetable dish that even vegetable haters will enjoy. It goes great with roasted meats. For milder flavors, substitute mozzarella cheese and use less vinegar."

Original Recipe Yield 2 servings

Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed
1 red onion, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
salt to taste
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
1 tablespoon toasted pine nuts (optional)

Directions

Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add the asparagus and red onion in the mixture, season with salt, and cook until the onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir the red bell pepper into the mixture and continue cooking until the onions begin to caramelize, another 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add the vinegar, Parmesan cheese, sesame seeds, and pine nuts; toss to combine.
