Asparagus with Sauteed Meyer Lemon Slices

Ingredients:
Asparagus for 4 - steamed, roasted or sauteed with a little salt and black pepper.
1 Meyer lemon sliced crosswise very thinly with a very sharp knife to make about 10
slices
1 TBS olive oil
1 TBS butter

Place olive oil and butter in a saute pan over medium-low heat. When butter begins to bubble, place the Meyer lemon slices in the pan. Don't let them overlap. Watch for the slices to lift a little from the bubbling liquid underneath them. DO NOT turn over the slices. Sprinkle with some salt and black pepper. Saute on lower flame for another minute or a bit less. Gently, pick up the slices by the rinds with a tongs. Place the lemon slices on top of your asparagus. The slices go great with the asparagus, but can also be eaten alone.
