Ingredients

  • 1 pound asparagus
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • kosher salt to taste
  • freshly-ground pepper to taste
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
  • 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 F.
  • Rinse asparagus well under cold running water. Pat dry with paper towels.
  • Break off tough ends of asparagus. Place on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt to taste and generously with pepper. Toss to coat fully.
  • Spread asparagus in a single layer on baking sheet. Sprinkle with garlic and Parmesan cheese. 
  • Roast in the oven for about 8 to 10 minutes or until tender yet crisp. Serve immediately.

Notes

Don’t overcrowd the roasting pan. Use a large enough roasting pan so the asparagus stalks don’t steam. If you double this recipe, consider roasting in batches, especially if you don’t have a large enough roasting pan.
