Mmmmmm - This looks good: Grilled Asparagus with Lemon Herb Breadcrumbs

I used this recipe last night but used different herbs as I needed to use the chives

asap. I used chives, parsley and a bit of thyme.

the next time I will remove the crusts from the bread before processing. too many crust chunks were left. I toasted them as the recipe called for. next time I will not brown them but just put in the oven for about 10 min. the toasted crumbs didn't stick the asparagus like I had hoped.

inspite of the sticking prob, it was very good. I'm going to process the leftover, toasted crumbs and get them much finer and use them tomorrow. maybe they will stick better. I'll coat the asparagus with the lemon butter and then sprinkle with crumbs. the lemon in the crumbs and in the butter is just lovely. the crumbs would probably be very good as a coating for fish.

 
I put the leftover crumbs back in the processor and processed till fine and

then coated fish filets with them and pan fried. it was good but nothing to write home about. the crumbs didn't give the fish as much flavor as I thought they would. maybe, just being a few days old made the difference. anyway, looking forward to making them again with softer crumbs smileys/smile.gif
