Sriracha Grilled Asparagus

Sriracha Grilled Asparagus is a vibrant and spicy vegan dish that brings the bold flavors of Thai BBQ to your table. The smoky char from the grill complements the zesty Sriracha and garlic marinade, making it a perfect side or light main course.

Ingredients

• Sriracha sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Soy sauce - 1 tablespoon
