Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high.
  2. Trim the woody ends of the asparagus, breaking them off or cutting with a knife. Place on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, add salt and pepper, and coat well with your hands.
  3. Make the lemon tahini sauce: mix the tahini, yogurt, lemon zest and juice, salt and garlic. Add the water, one tablespoon at a time, only if you need to thin the sauce.
  4. Place the asparagus on the grill (a perforated grill pan works well). Close the lid and grill for 5 minutes. Stir well and grill for another 5 minutes until crisp-tender.
  5. Move the asparagus to a serving platter.
  6. Drizzle with the lemon tahini sauce, top with Aleppo pepper and sesame seeds if you like, and serve warm.
