1
Prepare the Asparagus
Wash and trim the tough ends of the asparagus. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
2
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate bowls, place the flour in one, beaten eggs in another, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, salt, and black pepper in the third.
3
Bread the Asparagus
Coat each asparagus spear first in flour, then dip it in the egg, and finally roll it in the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.
4
Fry the Asparagus
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded asparagus in batches, frying for about 3-4 minutes until golden and crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
