Ingredients
- 1 bunch asparagus woody ends trimmed off
- 2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- 2 tsp garlic salt or garlic powder
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp sea salt celtic (skip if using garlic salt)
- 1 tsp pepper fresh cracked
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to the highest heat available (we prefer 450 degrees, but go as high as your model allows)
- Trim asparagus to remove tough, woody ends - discard ends.
- In a dish or on a plate, drizzle asparagus with olive oil and lemon juice, mix around with hands to coat evenly.
- Generously season with salt and pepper.
- Place asparagus in air fryer and roast for 10-15 minutes - checking at around 5 and 10 minutes to see if tips have started to brown slightly and asparagus has softened a bit and shake air fryer basket to move asparagus.
- Cook until asparagus is lightly soft and has crunchy browned bits, about 15 minutes total (this is very dependent on your air fryer and the thickness of the asparagus stalks - watch it to be sure it doesn't overcook.)
- When asparagus is done, serve immediately.
