Fresh Asparagus
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Asparagus
Rinse the jumbo fresh asparagus under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Trim the tough ends of the asparagus by snapping them off or cutting them with a knife.
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting the asparagus.
Cooking
Season the Asparagus
Place the trimmed asparagus on a large baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over the asparagus and sprinkle with salt, freshly ground black pepper, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Toss to coat the asparagus evenly.
Roast the Asparagus
Spread the seasoned asparagus in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until tender and slightly crispy.
Add Parmesan
Remove the asparagus from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top. Return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and golden.
Serving
Serve the Asparagus
Transfer the roasted asparagus to a serving platter and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious jumbo fresh asparagus as a side dish!
