You can cook them with olive oil, flashed in a skillet for 4 to 6 minutes depending on how you like them. I like mine to have a little pop. Just before they are finished you can add thick bacon (you've already cooked). I break the bacon into small pieces, and sprinkle them acrosss the top. Then I add half a fresh lemon with crushed pepper. Then I gently stir together and plate up, before your bacon gets to soft.
Another wonderful thing to add is mushrooms, also, already cooked until slightly chewy, so the are a great brown color. This has to be cooked before because, it will take longer than the asparagus. Combine at the same time as above . Then add lemon/pepper, wait a minute, add a splash of good drinking white wine to clean your skillet, stir to mix flavors and plate up.
Last but not least you can steam them for 4 minutes, then put into a very hot oven with shredded cheese spread lightly across and let that melt for 1 to 2 minutes. Add salt and pepper as you wish. I think the dryer cheese work best. Enjoy!

To boil asparagus on the stovetop, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add the asparagus. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the stalks; thinner asparagus will need closer to 3 minutes, while thicker stalks may require up to 5 minutes. The asparagus should be tender but still vibrant green. Once cooked, drain and immediately plunge them into ice water to stop the cooking process.
