Roasted Parmesan Asparagus
Make these roasted asparagus with Parmesan as an easy side dish with a crisp texture and a delicious garlicky flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 asparagus bunch
- 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic grated or 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅓ cup Parmesan Cheese shaved or shredded
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the asparagus spears onto the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, put the garlic or garlic powder on top, and season with salt, and black pepper. Toss the spears around to coat with the seasonings an garlic.
- Roast in the preheated for 12 to 15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the middle of the spear is tender when poked with a fork. I recommend checking for doneness around the 12-minute mark.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the spears.
- Place the baking sheet back into the oven and allow the cheese to melt, for about 1 minute.
Notes
- If you only have grated Parmesan, the one with the powder-like texture, use that. It will work too!
