Is it Spring somewhere? When it comes to food, I associate asparagus with Spring. It is the vegetable I cook most often in Spring and Summer. CH loves it and, now that I have other recipes to use, I like it. The recipes being posted today are those that I have found and tweaked a bit. Take a look at the simple, easy recipes.
Roasted Asparagus with Garlic
Ingredients
1 bunch thin asparagus
1 tablespoon ev olive oil 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves chopped garlic
Grated or shaved parmesan, optional DirectionsPreheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Trim the woody ends from the asparagus, usually about 1 1/2 inches. Spread the spears in a single layer on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with the salt and pepper, spread out the chopped garlic and roll to coat thoroughly.
Roast the asparagus until lightly browned and tender, about 8 to 10 minutes, giving the pan a good shake about halfway through to turn the asparagus. Arrange the roasted asparagus on a serving platter and top with some Parmesan.
