Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure that the asparagus cooks evenly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Rinse the asparagus under cold water to remove any dirt. Trim the woody ends of the asparagus by snapping them off or cutting them with a knife.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Season the Asparagus

    In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Add the trimmed asparagus and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.

  2. 4

    Roast the Asparagus

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

  3. 5

    Serve

    Remove the asparagus from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Serve warm as a side dish or a light appetizer.
