Cook asparagus in melted butter, stirring a few times, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Drizzle honey over the asparagus and stir to coat; season with garlic powder and cayenne pepper. Cook's Notes: If you find the asparagus sticks to the pan, you can add up to 1 tablespoon butter more while cooking. For a healthier alternative, use 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil instead of butter.
