Ingredients

  • 2 bunches asparagus
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 12 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 18 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Method

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Trim the woody ends from the asparagus.
  • Spread the spears in a single layer on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with the salt and pepper, and roll to coat thoroughly.
  • Roast the asparagus until lightly browned and tender, about 8 to 10 minutes, giving the pan a good shake about halfway through to turn the asparagus.
  • Arrange the roasted asparagus on a serving platter and top with some Parmesan (optional).
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.
