Method
Preparation
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the asparagus.
- 2
Prepare the Asparagus
Rinse the asparagus under cold water to remove any dirt. Snap off the woody ends of each asparagus spear by bending it gently until it breaks. This will ensure you only use the tender part.
Cooking
- 3
Season the Asparagus
In a large bowl, combine the asparagus spears, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the asparagus is well coated with the oil and seasonings.
- 4
Arrange on Baking Sheet
Spread the seasoned asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. This will help them roast evenly.
- 5
Roast the Asparagus
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and slightly crispy on the edges. You can check for doneness by piercing a spear with a fork.
- 6
Add Lemon Juice
Once roasted, remove the asparagus from the oven and drizzle with lemon juice. Toss gently to combine.
