This was so easy and fast to make. Nice and tender. I added some McCormick Rosemary and Garlic grind to it. This will become a family favorite. Hubby raved about it. Served it with a Porkloin with Hunter sauce that was cooking in the crockpot and garlic mashed potatoes with sauteed onions and mushroom as a side.

I sprayed the pan with nonstick butter spray prior to putting the spears in and drizzling with the olive oil. Don't know if it helped, but it certainly didn't hurt. ;^)
