Roasted Asparagus Parmesan

Ingredients Needed

  • Asparagus. I prefer my asparagus thin. It cooks faster, is more tender and less woody.
  • Olive oil
  • Salt. I prefer a coarse or flaky sea salt.
  • Black Pepper. I like a coarse freshly ground pepper.
  • Parmesan Cheese. Freshly grated is best.

How to Make Roasted Parmesan Asparagus

  • Trim your asparagus spears.  I cut off the bottom inch or so to get rid of the white, woody part of the asparagus or you can also snap off the end.
  • Place asparagus in a single layer on a sheet pan.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and toss or roll asparagus to coat lightly with oil.
Roasted Asparagus Parmesan
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Cook in a 400 degree F oven.  The cooking time will vary a bit depending on how thick your asparagus is.  Thinner asparagus will only take about five minutes. You want it to be fork tender, not too soft.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and return to oven for a minute or so to melt the cheese.

Tips for Making Roasted Parmesan Asparagus

  • You can also squeeze some fresh lemon juice onto the asparagus or sprinkle with lemon zest for added flavor. Do this when you are adding the cheese.
  • Drizzle with some balsamic glaze before serving.

What to Serve with Roasted Parmesan Asparagus:

  • Grilled Flank Steak
  • Balsamic Pork Tenderloin
  • Grilled Honey Mustard Chicken
  • Balsamic Glazed Grilled Pork Chop
  • Huli Huli Chicken

    Oooooh, I’m going to try this – I’m a veggie lover, but most of my family is not. So I’ve never made asparagus. I had them at a baby shower YEARS ago and LOVED them (I think that’s the only time I’ve even eaten them)

    This looks simple and delicious!!

    Thanks!
