Roasted Asparagus
I'm not sure I have posted a recipe that is both this easy and this tasty before. The ingredient list is short. The prep time is nothing. And the roasting requires only an oven and one flipping half-way through. The result is super tasty and pairs well with so many dishes. If we had a grill, we would grill asparagus, but since we do not, this is a great way to get the same type of flavor. This recipe was adapted from "The Santa Monica Farmers' Market Cookbook," by Amelia Saltsman.
Ingredients
- 1 bunch of asparagus - ends trimmed
- olive oil
- sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Place the top rack of the oven in the upper third. Preheat to 450 degrees.
- Lay the asparagus out on a baking sheet - allowing space between each stalk.
- Generously sprinkle with olive oil, salt and pepper to taste.
- Roast the asparagus for 6 minutes - use a spatula or tongs to flip - roast for another 6 minutes.
Eat and enjoy!
