Asparagus with Teriyaki Prawns

A tasty and easy dish for dinner. Just 3 ingredients and teriyaki sauce. I used the Kikkoman Teriyaki Sauce with Roasted Garlic, but any teriyaki sauce will do. I bought some organic baby asparagus from the market to prepare some pasta lunch for my kids, and have some left in the fridge. Wondering what to do with it, well.. I have some prawns in the freezer, a bottle of teriyaki sauce, put them all together with the addition of crispy fried garlic, this is the dish on my dinner table. My family love this! I have a request to cook this again!
