Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Trim the Asparagus

    Rinse the asparagus under cold water. Snap off the woody ends of the asparagus by bending each stalk until it naturally breaks.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely using a knife or a garlic press.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting the asparagus.

  2. 4

    Season the Asparagus

    Place the trimmed asparagus in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, add minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Toss the asparagus until evenly coated with the seasoning.

  3. 5

    Roast the Asparagus

    Spread the seasoned asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and slightly crispy.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve

    Remove the asparagus from the oven and serve immediately as a side dish or a light snack.
