1 cooking spray
0.25 tsp kosher salt
0.12 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tsp low sodium soy sauce
1 tsp balsamic vinegar

1 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2 Lay asparagus in one layer on a baking sheet. Spray asparagus with cooking spray. Season asparagus with salt and pepper. Bake 12 minutes or until soft.
