Stage:
I don't know if I've ever even had oven roasted asparagus. Tonight it just seems like a great idea. Here goes!
---
- bunch of asparagus with tough end snapped off
- olive oil 2T. or more
- s + p to taste
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- On a rimmed baking sheet, spread out the asparagus in a single layer. Pat them as dry as you can, as you don't want any water to "steam" the asparagus in the oven.
- Generously drizzle olive oil all over the asparagus, then sprinkle the asparagus generously with salt and pepper.
- Roast the asparagus for about 10 minutes.
The secret here is for the oven to be very hot so the asparagus can begin to brown on the outside without overcooking and getting too flimsy. You want the finished asparagus to still have a bite to it. Enjoy!
