You'd probably do better to steam the asparagus lightly and then saute it quickly in a little butter and spices. Or melt the butter and add the spices then pour this onto the cooked asparagus.

The bottom of the asparagus stalk will cook more slowly than the top -- I'd cut them in half -- steam the bottom half first then throw the top half in a minute later. Good luck.
