Preparation

Wash and Trim Asparagus
Rinse the asparagus under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat dry with a paper towel. Trim the tough ends of the asparagus by snapping them off or cutting about 1-2 inches from the bottom.

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

Season Asparagus
In a large bowl, combine the washed and trimmed asparagus with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to ensure the asparagus is evenly coated with the seasoning.

Roast Asparagus
Spread the seasoned asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and lightly browned, tossing halfway through for even cooking.

Add Lemon and Parmesan
Once the asparagus is cooked, remove it from the oven and drizzle with lemon juice. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top and return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
