Ingredients
- 1 bunch fresh asparagus 1 lb
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
- 3 Tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- Toppings: fresh lemon juice crushed red pepper, additional parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Wash asparagus and break or chop off the tough ends.
- Place the asparagus spears into a mixing bowl and drizzle with the olive oil. Toss to coat the spears, then sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, pepper and parmesan cheese.
- Preheat air fryer if required. Add asparagus to the air fryer in a single layer and cook on 400°F for 7-8 minutes. Note that the cook time will depend on how thick your asparagus is so watch it carefully.
- Serve asparagus immediately with a slice of lemon juice for squeezing and additional parmesan cheese and crushed red pepper on top, if desired.
Notes
- Storage: Let the asparagus cool completely before storing in an airtight container. It will stay fresh in the fridge for up to 4 days, though it may lose some crispness.
- Substitutions: Not a fan of parmesan or looking for a dairy-free option? You can easily swap it out for nutritional yeast for a cheesy, umami flavor. Be sure to add it after air frying for the best taste! Another great option is vegan parmesan, which will give a similar taste and texture.
