Continue cooking for another minute, allowing the honey to caramelize slightly and the spices to meld with the asparagus. Serve immediately.
For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of regular butter.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end adds a bright, acidic counterpoint to the sweetness of the honey.
If you prefer a more pronounced garlic flavor, use fresh minced garlic instead of garlic powder. Add it to the skillet along with the asparagus.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking. For a milder flavor, omit it altogether.
This recipe also works well with other vegetables, such as green beans or broccoli.
