Ingredients

  • 1 pound asparagus
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • optional toppings recommendations below

Optional Toppings (feel free to skip, or use whatever combination you love)

  • 1/2 cup parmesan freshly grated
  • lemon zest and/or lemon juice
  • red pepper flakes
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F. Option to line a baking sheet with parchment or foil for easy clean up.
  • Cut off the woody ends of your asparagus--pro tip: you can do this by holding the base of your asparagus and using your other hand to grab at the center. Now, "snap" the asparagus and they'll naturally break off the woody ends.
  • Place asparagus on a rimmed baking sheet, and drizzle with oil, salt, and pepper. Spread into a single layer, and bake in your preheated oven for 8-10 minutes for thin stalks, or 13-16 for thicker stalks.
  • If using any of the recommended toppings, sprinkle on top just before serving, and enjoy.
