This recipe is something special. The outside of the asparagus becomes a little crispy with a tender middle. The roasted parmesan is highlighted by the lemon zest. Simple and perfect.

What You Need
Bunch of Asparagus – about 15
Salt
Pepper
Lemon Zest – 1/2 a lemon
Olive Oil
Parmesan Cheese
What To Do
Preheat the oven to 350
Trim the ends of the asparagus – place into large bowl.
Drizzle oil over asparagus – I do about 1 – 2 tablespoons. Just enough to make sure each are lightly covered in oil.
Season with salt and pepper – I do a pinch of salt and about 1/4 teaspoon of pepper
Add lemon zest.
Mix
Spread Asparagus onto a cookie sheet covered in parchment paper.
Bake for 10 minutes.
Sprinkle a “healthy” amount of cheese – I tend to use about 1/4 of a cup.
Bake until cheese is melted and starting to brown.
Enjoy

Hi!
This ooks really good. Plan on making this as a side for my Christmas dinner(;
Would using vegetable oil or corn oil impact the taste of the recipe too much?
Hmmm I am not sure — I would personally use olive oil
I love roasted asparagus! I also like it with just a touch of balsamic vinegar as well (basically switch your acids). Yum! Always a perfect go to.
Decided to use lemon pepper instead of the lemon zest & pepper and also seasoned with some garlic salt. It is in the oven right now looks delicious!
Made this for dinner tonight along with salmon cakes. The asparagus tasted fantastic. Switched out the lemon zest for some lemon juice and added garlic salt. Also like to use as little oil as possible so I used my Misto and sprayed on a little bit of the olive oil. Great recipe, will definitely make again!
I am so glad you liked it
