Materials

  • 1 bunch asparagus
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Spread asparagus over the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle salt and pepper to taste. Toss to coat.
  • Roast for 15 minutes or until cooked, but not charred or limp.

Notes

Additional options: Minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar
Thin asparagus shoots will cook much more quickly than thick shoots, so you will want to adjust cooking time accordingly.
