1. In a small bowl, infuse minced garlic into 3 tablespoons olive oil. In the meantime, boil salted water in a large pot and pre-cook potatoes for 8 minutes. After 5 minutes, add the asparagus and cook for the 3 minutes remaining with potatoes. Then drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the infused olive oil (without the garlic) and stir in potatoes. Stir with a wooden spoon to coat potatoes in infused olive oil. Cook potatoes until golden, about 5 minutes. Remove potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add remaining olive oil with garlic and cook asparagus, tossing regularly for 3 minutes. Return potatoes back to the skillet. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat fully and cook for 4 or 5 more.
4. Season with extra balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes:
- You can switch asparagus in favor of green beans.
- Infuse oil with garlic for a little longer, like 15mn, if you have time.
- If you make this recipe with regular potatoes instead, pre-boil a little longer and cook for 5 minutes more in the skillet.
- Serve with grilled chicken, pork chops or steak, it’s delicious!
