Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside.
- Rinse the asparagus and trim off woody end pieces. Spread out in a thin layer on top of the prepared cookie sheet.
- Spray the asparagus lightly with a coat of olive oil spray. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic, and parmesan cheese. Use your hands to mix the asparagus with all of the ingredients, then lay out into an even layer again. Spray with one more light coat of olive oil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-9 minutes. Remove from oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Notes
- I prepare my roasted asparagus on the same cookie sheet that it bakes on. I can't stand extra dishes to wash, so if a recipe allows a short-cut, I go for it! Just make sure to use a rimmed baking sheet and line it with foil or parchment paper. It will make cleanup easier, too.
- The best way to store asparagus is upright in a bowl or wide glass of cold water in the fridge. If you don't have the space for this method, you can also wrap the bottom of your asparagus in a damp paper towel before storing in the fridge. This will help your asparagus to stay nice and crisp.
- To give some brightness to your asparagus, add a squeeze of lemon juice before roasting.
- Don't overcook it! I like to cook my asparagus for just about 8-9 minutes. If you go any longer than that, the asparagus gets too soft for my liking. I like it to be a little bit crisp and not mushy.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
