Caramelized Oven Asparagus Recipes

BAKED ASPARAGUS WITH PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with cooking spray.
• Add asparagus to the baking sheet and add olive oil, lemon juice and all seasonings. Toss to evenly coat then arrange asparagus in a single layer. Evenly top with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake at 425 degrees F for 7-10 minutes or until tender but still crisp.
• While the asparagus is baking, make Panko topping. Melt one tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add panko and stir to coat then continue to cook and stir until panko is golden.
• Sprinkle toasted panko all over baked asparagus. Serve immediately.

OVEN-ROASTED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• After you wash the asparagus thoroughly, stack a bunch together and lop off the tough/thick bottom an inch or so.
• Spread out the asparagus in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Pat it as dry as you can, as you don't want any water to "steam" the asparagus in the oven.
• Begin by generously drizzling olive oil all over the asparagus and then sprinkle the asparagus generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Roast the asparagus for about ten minutes. The secret here is for the oven to be very hot so the asparagus can begin to brown on the outside without overcooking and getting too flimsy. You want the finished asparagus to still have a bite to it. Enjoy!
