Roasted Asparagus
Report
The best Roasted Asparagus is made with just a few simple ingredients and ready in under 20 minutes. It's a fresh and delicious vegetable side dish that's super easy to make!

Ingredients
- 1 pound asparagus medium thickness, fresh
- 1 to 2 teaspoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450° F. Snap off tough ends of the asparagus (bend the asparagus sharply at the base and it will snap at just the right place) and discard the ends. Trim the ends with a knife for a more refined look, or just use as-is.
- Place asparagus on a rimmed sheet pan and drizzle with enough olive oil to just lightly coat the asparagus. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and then fold until all asparagus is lightly coated with oil. Spread asparagus in a single layer on the pan.
- Roast in the oven until the bases of the thickest asparagus spears pierce semi-easily with a fork. Take care to not over-cook. I prefer asparagus that is a medium thickness, which takes 9-12 minutes. Thinner asparagus will take less time, thicker asparagus will take more time.
- Serve roasted asparagus straight from the sheet pan or transfer to a platter. Season with additional salt & pepper if desired.
Notes
- Sometimes I squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top of the roasted asparagus, plus a sprinkle of lemon zest. Or I add freshly shaved Parmesan or a pinch of red pepper flakes. And sometimes I add all of these at the same time!
