Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb fresh asparagus trimmed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 paprika
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • zest of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • fresh parsley optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Trim asparagus and pat completely dry.
  3. Top asparagus with olive oil, minced garlic, seasonings. Top with 1/2 the Parmesan cheese and massage in.
  4. Arrange asparagus in a single layer. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan evenly over the asparagus, concentrating some underneath and between the spears so it creates crispy cheese edges.
  5. Roast for 10–15 minutes, depending on thickness, until asparagus is tender and Parmesan is golden.
  6. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice, extra parm, and fresh parsley.
