Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Rinse the asparagus under cold water to remove any dirt. Trim the tough ends of the asparagus by snapping them off or cutting about an inch from the bottom.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Season the Asparagus

    In a large bowl, toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.

  2. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Oven

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  3. 4

    Char the Asparagus

    Place the seasoned asparagus directly on the grill grates or on a baking sheet if using the oven. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the asparagus is tender and has charred marks. If using the oven, roast for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  4. 5

    Finish with Lemon Juice

    Remove the asparagus from the heat and drizzle with fresh lemon juice for added flavor.
