1 1/2 pounds fresh asparagus
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
6 (1-inch-thick) slices day-old country-style bread
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
16 cherry tomatoes, mix of red and yellow, quartered
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup nicoise olives, pitted

1
Prepare grill.
2
Snap off tough ends of asparagus or trim with a knife, and peel the bottom half of the stalk, if necessary.
3
Place asparagus on a baking sheet, toss with olive oil, and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill asparagus, perpendicular to the grates, for 3-5 minutes on each side or until just crisp-tender.
4
Grill the bread about 1 minute per side or until slightly charred. Cut each slice into 1-inch cubes.
5
Whisk vinegar, garlic, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and extra-virgin olive oil in a large bowl until combined. Add asparagus, grilled bread, tomatoes, and remaining ingredients; mix. Season with more salt and pepper, if desired. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
