Ingredients
- 1 lb. asparagus equal to 1 bunch
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- salt
- black pepper
For Serving (Optional)
- lemon wedges
- Parmesan Cheese shredded
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Rinse the asparagus and pat completely dry.
- Line up the asparagus and trim an inch off the bottom to remove the tough/thick part.
- Place on a baking sheet (preferably dark), and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Arrange in a single layer and leave space around each so that they can roast and not steam.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes. (Closer to 10 for a dark baking sheet or 15 for a light one.) Thicker asparagus will take a little longer as well. You want the outside to roast but the asparagus to remain firm without becoming too flimsy.
- Remove and season with salt and pepper. (Lemon pepper seasoning is also a great choice!) Serve with lemon wedges and/or Parmesan cheese if desired.
Notes
- Roughly chopped bacon, lemon wedges, sliced almonds, red pepper flakes, and Parmesan make great additions as well.
- To add garlic, use smashed whole garlic cloves as opposed to minced garlic to ensure it doesn't burn.
