Baked Parmesan Asparagus is a delicious and healthy dish that combines the crispness of fresh asparagus with the savory flavors of parmesan cheese and garlic. This easy-to-make recipe is perfect as a side dish for any meal or as a snack on its own.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Rinse the asparagus spears under cold water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
- Trim the woody ends of the asparagus by snapping or cutting off the bottom inch. The spears will naturally break where the tender part meets the tougher end.
- Lay the asparagus spears out on a baking sheet in a single layer.
- Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the asparagus.
- Sprinkle the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper over the spears. Use your hands or tongs to toss the asparagus gently, ensuring that each spear is evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
- Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese generously and evenly over the asparagus spears.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and the parmesan is golden and slightly crispy. Thicker asparagus may require a bit more time, so check for desired tenderness.
- Remove the asparagus from the oven.
- Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy immediately as a delicious side dish.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm asparagus spears for the best results.
- Trim the woody ends of the asparagus before cooking.
- For even cooking, make sure to spread the asparagus spears out in a single layer on the baking sheet.
- If you prefer extra crispy asparagus, broil them for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
- Feel free to add other seasonings such as red pepper flakes or lemon zest for a different flavor profile.
With minimal ingredients and a short prep time, Baked Parmesan Asparagus is a fuss-free recipe that delivers maximum flavor. Whether you are preparing a quick weeknight dinner or entertaining guests, this dish is sure to impress.
