Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash and Trim Asparagus

    Rinse the asparagus under cold running water. Snap off the woody ends of each asparagus spear by bending them gently until they break. This will ensure you only use the tender parts.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the asparagus.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Season the Asparagus

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the trimmed asparagus with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and lemon juice. Toss well to ensure the asparagus is evenly coated with the seasoning.

  2. 4

    Roast the Asparagus

    Spread the seasoned asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and slightly crispy. Stir halfway through for even cooking.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve

    Remove the asparagus from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Transfer to a serving platter and enjoy warm as a side dish.
