Roasted Asparagus Ingredients
Method
Roasted Asparagus Directions
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure even roasting of the asparagus.

Prepare the Asparagus
Rinse the fresh asparagus under cool running water and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel. Trim the tough ends of the asparagus by snapping them off or cutting about 1-2 inches from the bottom.

Season the Asparagus
In a large mixing bowl, combine the trimmed asparagus, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the asparagus is evenly coated.

Arrange on Baking Sheet
Spread the seasoned asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Roast the Asparagus
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the asparagus for 12-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and slightly crispy at the tips.

Add Lemon Juice and Parmesan
Remove the asparagus from the oven and drizzle with lemon juice. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top while the asparagus is still warm, ensuring it melts slightly.
