Pasta with Asparagus

Ingredients:

3/4 cup butter
2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
1 lb thin asparagus spears
Freshly ground pepper
Angel hair pasta (4-6 cups), cooked
1 lemon, cut into wedges
Freshly grated or shaved Parmesan or Asiago cheese

Cut asparagus spears diagonally into 1/4 inch pieces. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and saute just until it begins to turn golden. Add the asparagus and saute until crisp-tender (3-5 minutes). Serve immediately over cooked pasta with lemon wedges and cheese. 4 servings.
