¼cup(½ stick) unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1lemon, cut into wedges
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic, herbs, and salt and pepper.
Place a few stalks of asparagus on the middle of each piece of foil.
Brush the asparagus with the butter herb mixture.
Place a few cubes of butter over the asparagus in each piece of foil. Squeeze the juice from one lemon wedge over the asparagus and place the wedge next to the asparagus in each foil packet.
Close the foil packets like an envelope, leaving a small opening to allow the air to circulate.
Grill over medium-high heat for about 9 to 12 minutes, just until the asparagus turns a bright green. Serve with remaining lemon wedges.

Notes
Asparagus: be sure to trim the thick woody ends off the stems of each asparagus stalk.Cooking time: check in on the asparagus around the 9 minute mark. Thin asparagus spears will cook faster than thicker asparagus spears.
