Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1-1/2 pounds fresh asparagus
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges, for serving

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 400F degrees.
  • If the stalks of the asparagus are thick and/or seem tough, peel the bottom half of each.
  • Place the asparagus on sheet pan or oven safe baking dish and drizzle with the olive oil. Roll/toss to coat with the oil and then arrange in a single layer for even cooking. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper.
  • Place in the oven and bake/roast until tender to your liking, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size/age of your asparagus.
  • Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and return to the oven until the cheese melts, another 1 to 3 minutes.
  • Serve with the lemon wedges.
