Preparation

Prepare the Asparagus
Rinse the asparagus under cold water thoroughly. Trim the woody ends of the asparagus by snapping them off or cutting about 1 to 2 inches from the bottom.
Cooking
- 2
Season the Asparagus
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice. Add the trimmed asparagus to the bowl and toss well to coat the asparagus evenly with the seasoning.

Roast the Asparagus
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the seasoned asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the asparagus is tender and slightly crispy, tossing halfway through for even cooking.

Serve
Once roasted, remove the asparagus from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Serve warm as a side dish or garnish with additional lemon juice or zest if desired.
