1/2 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons lemon zest

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Preparation:

Coat almonds with nonstick cooking spray and cook in a skillet over medium heat, stirring, 3 to 5 minutes or until golden. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of broth to make a paste. Set aside. Remove the tough ends from the asparagus and discard.
