Notes
- Use Fresh garlic | 1-2 cloves of pressed or minced garlic would be delicious in place of the garlic powder.
- Balsamic Asparagus Recipe | Drizzle the air fryer asparagus with parmesan with a little balsamic vinegar or even better, balsamic glaze or reduction, try my friend Chellie’s recipe here!
- Try different cheeses | In place of or in addition to use Pecorino Romano cheese, Gruyere or any hard strong cheese would be a good substitute.
- Kick it Up | Sprinkle asparagus with red pepper flakes!
- When purchasing asparagus, make sure it is firm and plump, not limp; the tips should be tightly closed.
- Trim the white portion of the asparagus ends off, between 1-2 inches, this part of the asparagus is typically tough and woody.
- After rinsing asparagus be sure to pat it dry, so that the oil mixture will stick.
