Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). If using store-bought crab cakes, bake them according to package instructions. If homemade, bake or pan-fry until golden and heated through (about 10-12 minutes).

While the crab cakes are cooking, trim the woody ends from the asparagus. Toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of sea salt.

Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill or sauté the asparagus for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender and slightly charred. Set aside and keep warm.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the smashed garlic and dry white wine. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the wine is reduced by half.
