Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Asparagus
Trim the tough ends of the asparagus stalks and rinse them under cold water. Pat dry with a paper towel.
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Season the Asparagus
Place the asparagus on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, then add minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Roast the Asparagus
Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until tender and slightly crispy.
Add Lemon and Cheese
Remove the asparagus from the oven, drizzle with lemon juice, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese.
Serve
Transfer the asparagus to a serving platter and enjoy warm.
